The combination of thick udon noodles, dark green kale, and spicy pork is great, but the addition of Vietnamese Pho stock is what takes this dish over the top. It has a distinct character that’ll have you slurping down every last drop. Thai chili peppers pack some serious heat, so add with caution!
