Most often cooked with

Beef coated in cornflour and seared in batches in a pan hot enough to smoke, with the sauce going in only at the very end.

Strips of beef seared fast and finished in a soured-cream and mustard sauce that is warmed through rather than boiled.

Charring the onion and ginger before they go near water is what makes the broth smell like pho rather than beef soup. Everything else is patience.
