Bún bò Nam Bộ (or Bún bò khô, Bún bò xào) is known as Noodles with Beef and Herbs. The name comes from the Nam Bộ region, where this popular dish originates.
Simplicity and elegance are what people describe this dish as. Instead of using a sophisticated broth like Phở, a special sauce is used for Bun bo Nam Bo. In addition, fresh raw vegetables and herbs accompanied by fried onions, roasted peanuts, and soybean sprouts are essential elements of this dish.
