Ingredients
- 100 grams lean beef (sirloin or round steak, finely sliced)
- 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons Thai fish sauce (optional, check for sugar-free)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 stalk green onion, sliced
- 0.25 teaspoons salt

Instructions
Prepare all ingredients by finely slicing the lean beef, mincing the garlic, grating the ginger, and chopping the fresh herbs.
In a small pot, bring the low-sodium beef broth to a simmer over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and crushed red chili flakes to the broth. Stir and let it simmer for 2 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Carefully add the sliced beef to the simmering broth. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the beef is fully cooked and tender.
If using optional zucchini 'noodles,' add them to the broth and cook for 1-2 minutes, just until they soften slightly.
Stir in the Thai fish sauce (if using), fresh lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Remove the soup from heat and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and sliced green onion.
Serve immediately, enjoying the bold flavors of this HCG Phase 2-friendly Thai Beef Soup.
