- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds

INSTRUCTIONS
1.Adjust oven rack to top position; preheat broiler to high. Place onion and ginger on baking sheet lined with foil. Broil for 13-15 minutes, turning once, until all outer surfaces are deeply charred.
2.Add star anise, cloves, cinnamon, fennel and coriander seeds to large pot on medium heat. Cook 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until toasted and fragrant. Add charred onion, ginger and broths; bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 30 minutes. Strain broth; discard ginger, onion and spices. Return broth to pot. Stir in fish sauce, lime juice, sugar and salt. Keep broth mixture at a low simmer on low heat.
3.Meanwhile, cook ZENB Pasta as directed on package. Drain; divide pasta between four large soup bowls.
4.Top each serving with beef slices, spouts, herbs and chilies. Ladle hot broth over toppings. Serve immediately with lime wedges, hoisin and Sriracha sauce.
Tasty Tips
Cut the beef against the grain as thin as possible, or have your butcher cut paper thin slices on the meat slicer. The residual heat of the hot broth cooks the raw slices of beef right in the bowl. Asian markets often sell paper thin slices of meat for hot pots that would work perfectly in this recipe.
Substitute broiled or grilled, skin-on chicken thighs for the beef.
