It is sauteed and stir-fried (until crispy) with finely-chopped pig innards and cooked in onion, tomato, garlic, and pepper.[2]

Recipes for bopis may differ from region to region and family to family, with regard to ingredients, spices and flavoring.

Classified as pulutan in Filipino cuisine,[3] bopis is served with alcoholic beverages, or may be taken as a viand with steamed rice.
