โข 1 small daikon radish, peeled and cut into big chunks
โข 1-2 packages of beef meatballs
Put everything in Instant Pot Ultra 8qt, except the beef meatballs. Fill the pot up to the max line with water (Please respect the max line or have a mess later). Use Pressure Cook setting on high for 45 minutes and use Natural Release if you have time, if not Quick Release can be used.
Remove the ox tails and add beef balls and bring to boil using Saute mode. At this time it is ready to be served but if you have time and can wait, close the lid and Pressure Cook it on high for another 45 minutes for dark, rich, flavorful, savory broth. When done, remove some fat oil on the top oil layer with a ladle or oil separator/net (youโll want to leave some). Remove bones, onion, ginger and spices. Add more water to pass the max line. Add meatballs and bring it to boil by using Saute mode. Now you have a perfect pot of Pho broth!
