Bún Bò Nam Bộ

Bún Bò Nam bộ (beef noodles in the south) is also known as stirred beef vermicelli. The simplicity and elegance is what people describe about this dish. Instead of using sophisticated broth as Pho, sauce is used for Bun bo Nam Bo. Besides, fresh raw accompanying vegetables, fried onion, roasted peanuts and bean sprouts are indispensable elements.
Beef used for the dish is well soaked in sugar, fish sauce and pepper and other seasonings. Only when customers order, beef will be stirred to keep its heat, tenderness and richness. The sauce simply consists of fish sauce, sugar, lemon, chili but how to combine these elements properly is the secret recipe of each restaurant, which makes the distinction of each Bun bo Nam Bo restaurant.
The freshness of vermicelli and vegetables, the richness of beef, the slight sourness and sweetness of the sauce and pea-nutty taste are an absolutely good choice, especially in summer.
