Thai Beef Soup

By: Zoë (View Profile)

This soup is great for winter or summer, and great to serve to guests because they can build their own soup to their own taste. I have made this a few times for guests, and while at first they have baulked at the idea of lettuce in soup, once they start eating everything begins to make sense.

Ingredients:

  • Two small rib-eye fillets (or other tender beef cut)
  • 1 pound beef stock (You can make this from stock cubes, but liquid is better if you can get it.)
  • 1–2 sticks celery, thinly sliced
  • One brown onion, cut in quarters, then sliced thinly
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • Coriander (fresh) to taste
  • Vermicelli (rice) noodles (one cake for two people) I prefer to use white kind, not the glass noodle kind.
  • Bean sprouts
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Sliced mushrooms
