Ingredients
Potatoes
- 700 g potatoes, peeled and chopped into 3cm cubes
Corned Beef Hash
- 340 g tinned corned beef, cut into 1cm cubes
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (or Henderson's Relish)
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Optional Topping
- Fried eggs, to serve
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes: Place the peeled and chopped potatoes in a pot of boiling water and cook until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain them thoroughly to remove excess moisture.
- Sauté the onions: While the potatoes are cooking, heat the sunflower oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and fry for about 5 minutes until softened and lightly golden.
- Add main ingredients: Add the drained potatoes, cubed corned beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the pan. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Fry until crispy: Increase the heat to high and cook the mixture for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes start to develop a crispy, golden crust.
- Optional crisping under grill: For extra crispiness, transfer the hash to an ovenproof dish and pop it under the grill for a few minutes until the top is nicely browned and crispy.
- Serve with eggs: Serve the corned beef hash topped with freshly fried eggs for a complete and hearty meal.
Notes
- You can substitute sunflower oil with vegetable or canola oil if preferred.
- For a spicier twist, add some chili flakes or smoked paprika when frying the onions.
- If you prefer a softer texture, omit the final grilling step.
- Leftover hash can be reheated in a skillet over medium heat to restore crispness.
- To make the dish gluten-free, ensure the Worcestershire sauce used is gluten-free.
