Delicious Corned Beef Hash For Breakfast

During a recent market trip, Bev picked up two packages of corned beef and I froze the smaller one and cooked the larger one.  I decided it was large enough to eat some for supper with still plenty left over for corned beef hash.  The size of the ingredients is a matter of personal preference but after eating some Neuske’s Corned Beef Hash, I think I like the smaller pieces better even though they take more time to prepare.

Corned Beef Hash

Ingredients:

1 tbsp butter, divided

1 tbsp olive oil, divided

1 cup small diced onion

3 cup small dice, cooked corned beef (about 3/8”)

3 cup small dice, boiled Yukon Gold potatoes (3/8”-1/2”)

½ tsp. Tiger Seasoning

A good shake of smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

Cook the corned beef per package directions. 

Dice the meat to desired size.

Add the potatoes to the bowl.

Add a little oil to a small skillet over medium heat and add the onion.  Cook until softened.

Mix the onions into the hash mixture.

Add the oil and butter to a larger skillet (or griddle) over medium heat, had the hash in serving sized piles and spread out a little.  Season with Tiger, paprika, S&P. 

Don’t touch it until browned and a little crispy, then flip and brown the other side.

I added some shredded cheese to kick it up another notch.

Meanwhile fry or poach the eggs to your liking – I fried mine in a ring mold as I’m not an experienced egg poacher.  

This is how I eat mine - the garbage look.

The Verdict:

It was delicious and a great use for the corned beef but I wish I had cut the pieces of meat and potatoes even smaller.  

For supper the previous night, we'd had sliced corned beef and potatoes cooked with it and SIL, Pat, joined us and enjoyed the meal but when I invited her over for corned beef hash the next morning, she said she’d never had it and didn’t think she would like it – DUH.

After the above breakfast, I gave the remaining hash a few pulses in the food processor so this was the next version - I preferred it as it held together better when flipping although the taste was the same.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.
