For a richer flavor, consider using pork broth instead of water in the simmering stage. Adjust the amount of vinegar to your preference for tanginess. Bopis is traditionally served as a pulutan (appetizer) or as a main course with rice. For a spicier kick, add a finely chopped chili pepper during the sautéing of the aromatics.
