Can't guarantee the authenticity of the recipe, I'm an East-European living in Germany, so I just used a few online recipes and the ingredients I had available :)

Cross-post this on a vietnam community (if they exist) and see what they say.

Well I wasn’t gonna say anything😆 So right off the bat I’m seeing bell peppers(?), garlic, and lemongrass which do not go in pho. Don’t use cooking wine/sake - if it’s for acidity, using lime is typical. Rice noodles instead of glass. Needs herbs like basil and cilantro. Also this is nitpicky, but gà literally means “chicken.”

But you know, OP gets away with it because they said “inspired” and made with ingredients they had ;)

Thanks! Indeed, that's why I added the "inspired" tag :D

Not as an excuse, but some explanation - I added pepper for some color, garlic because I can't live without it :), glass noodles as I didn't have rice noodles, sake as I didn't have lime or lemon :D (every store is closed on Sundays where I live, so...).

I used chicken broth I cooked myself yesterday, and I generally use turkey/chicken interchangeably, that's why I used gà.

What about the spices / aromatics? Anything else I was missing?

Anyhow, points taken, 2nd time I make this I'll be sure to make it proper!
