Ingredients
- Potatoes - Floury potatoes are preferred. I used Rooster potatoes but have also used Maris Piper and King Edward potatoes when making corned beef hash. You can use your favorite type of floury potatoes.
- Salt
- Onion - I used a large onion and diced it evenly with a sharp knife.
- Garlic - I use fresh garlic and minced with a garlic press but you can also do this with a sharp knife. You can use ready minced garlic from a jar if you prefer.
- Canned Corned Beef - I used 1 can of Corned beef which I Sliced and shredded but you can cut into cubes if prefered.
- Fresh Parsley - To garnish this is optional.
See the recipe card for quantities.
Instructions
- Peel and dice potatoes evenly into cubes. Place the cubed potatoes in a pan of water with ½ teaspoon salt and bring to a boil for approximately 10 mins until slightly softened but not fully cooked. Drain with a colander and set aside to steam dry.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet or pan over a medium/hot temperature. Add diced onion and minced garlic and cook for 5 minutes.
- Carefully add the diced potatoes and let them brown slightly. Stirring gently to ensure that the onions and potatoes cook evenly.
- After the potatoes begin to crisp add the diced or shredded corned beef into the pan distributing evenly. Continue cooking for a further 5 minutes until the corned beef is hot and potatoes are crispy.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and a yolky fried egg if desired.
Hint: I don't feel the need to add any extra salt to the finished dish as the canned corned beef has enough salt added already. Best served immediately. Add a fried egg for a comforting breakfast.
