Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high. Add ground pork and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Pour broth and fish sauce into the pot. Add mushroom slices. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.

  3. Step 3

    Add rice noodles to the simmering broth. Cook until tender, ~4 minutes, stirring occasionally so they don't clump.

  4. Step 4

    Squeeze lime juice into the pot. Taste and adjust salt or fish sauce if needed.

  5. Step 5

    Ladle into bowls and top with chopped green onion. Serve hot.
