You have bile salts, those are secreted in the bile. You have bile salts called as sodium taurocholate and sodium glycocholate. They act as the agents, which emulsify the fat. That means the fat is broken down to very small spherical particles. This greatly increase the surface area of contact between the lipase enzyme and fat. This helps in digestion of the fat. The bile salts are reabsorbed in lower part of the intestine. So the bile salts are recycled. This process is called as 'Enterohepatic' circulation.

Bile also acts as an emulsifier; it breaks down fats therefore increases the surface area, allowing more lipase enzymes to do their job.
