This Vietnamese Broth leans on fish sauce and lime to do the heavy lifting. We braise the Lentil for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the fish sauce and lime elements, and pat the lentil dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the dried lentils and braise until it takes on colour and the edges catch, 4 to 6 minutes.
Stir in the rice paper and the rest of the fish sauce and lime flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the cherry tomatoes along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
