How to choose good ingredients
How to choose fresh beef
- You should choose beef that is bright red, has fine, smooth fibers, beautiful marbling, and the fat is light yellow. When smelling, it should have the characteristic aroma of beef.
- Additionally, good beef will feel sticky to the touch and will have a certain elasticity when pressed lightly. To make the dish tastier, you should choose beef tenderloin!
- Avoid buying beef that is dark red, has dark yellow fat, and has large fibers, as this indicates old cattle, which are usually tough and not tasty. If the meat is dark red, has white fat, and has a slightly fishy smell, it is likely fake beef made from buffalo meat.
How to choose fresh chicken eggs
- Fresh chicken eggs will have a uniform shell color, with no cracks or black spots on the shell.
- Additionally, you can touch the surface of the eggshell; if it feels rough and slightly coarse, then it’s a fresh chicken egg, while a smooth surface indicates that the egg has been stored for quite a while.
- Do not buy chicken eggs if, when held up to the light, you see a large air cell, the yolk is bright red, has veining, or if the shell is pale with many black spots, as these are old chicken eggs.
How to choose delicious pate
- It is advisable to choose pate that has a natural pink-brown color, feels soft and fluffy when touched, and is not dry.
- Additionally, you can use a knife to test the quality of the pate. If after cutting, the knife does not stick to the pate and the pate crumbs do not fall off, then it is good pate and should be purchased; otherwise, it should not.
- Currently, you can buy pate at TasteVN or at supermarkets nationwide. When purchasing, you should buy products that are well-packaged without being dented or peeling. And remember to check the expiration date printed on the box!
- Besides, you can showcase your skills by making pate at home with detailed instructions from TasteVN.
What is unsalted butter? Where to buy?
- Unsalted butter is a type of butter that does not contain salt, with a light aroma and slightly sweet taste. It is often used to make cookies, cream puffs, cakes, etc., or spread on bread.
- Currently, you can easily buy unsalted butter at grocery stores, supermarkets, or at TasteVN stores nationwide, with the price for a 200g box ranging from 63,000 – 87,000 VND/box (price updated 5/2021).
- When purchasing, you should pay attention to the expiration date printed on the product packaging. Do not choose products with torn, falling packaging, or those not stored in the refrigerator.
- Additionally, you can make unsalted butter at home with very detailed guides shared by TasteVN.

How to make Beef steak with fried egg
-
Prepare and marinate the beef
Beef purchased from the supermarket should be dried with a paper towel; you can use a meat mallet, meat tenderizer, or hammer to pound the meat until it becomes tender.
Next, add the tenderized meat along with 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, 5 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1.5 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1/3 tablespoon of pepper, and 1 tablespoon of whisky into the bowl, and mix both sides thoroughly so that the meat is evenly coated with the seasoning.
Then, use plastic wrap to cover the bowl tightly and place it in the freezer for about 15 minutes to allow the meat to absorb the seasoning evenly and firm up.

Making Bo Ne
Place a pan on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil into the pan, wait until the oil is hot, then add sliced onions, stir-frying over medium heat for about 2 minutes until the onions are fragrant.
Next, add the marinated beef and sear both sides over medium heat for 3 minutes each, then add 30g of unsalted butter. Wait until the butter has completely melted, then add 1 sausage, 1 piece of pâté, and crack 1 egg into the pan.
Keep the pan on the stove for another 2 minutes until the egg is cooked, and the pâté and sausage are evenly golden, then turn off the heat and enjoy.

Final Product
The aroma of Bo Ne Op La is fragrant with the scent of butter combined with the smell of onions and garlic, creating an irresistible and appealing fragrance.
When you take the first bite, you will feel the tenderness and juiciness of the beef. Dipping and eating with bread, fried egg, a bit of rich sauce, crispy cucumber, and tomato to balance the flavors—what could be better than that?
