Method

  1. Boil the potatoes until just tender, about 6–8 minutes, then drain well. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a frying pan and cook the onion until softened. Add the potatoes and cook until browned and crisp. Tip in the corned beef and cook until it starts to brown at the edges. Season, stir through the parsley then serve, topped with a fried egg.

beatlebabe, my take on corned beef hash is as follows, but the ingredients can be altered to suit what you have, its also much healthier, cook chopped carrots, parsnip, onions and garlic in stock with tom puree, worcestershire sauce and wholegrain mustard, when almost done add diced corned beef and heat through, sprinkle with lots of chopped parsley and serve, we have it with large salad leaves, fill them with the hash, roll up and enjoy! my teenagers and hubby love this!

Put it all together but didn't completely brown it, instead put into oven dishes and into freezer. Browned in oven from frozen then cracked an egg on top and put back in oven. Served with large squirt of tommy ketchup. Yummy!

Wonderful storecupboard recipe. Added garlic, chilli and some squashy tomatoes and sprinkled with worcester sauce. Fabulously savoury dish.

Tried this with spam rather than corned beef and put some garlic and chilli in too, it was surprisingly nice and filling too

Had corned beef hash for the first time last week, I found it way too salty for my liking! My partner loved it though! Used scrambled egg instead of fried as hes not to keen on fried. I thought the potatoes were lovely though! Just need about a gallon of water to go with it!!!

Very tasty for a Saturday brunch. Next time will try with a poached egg instead of fried and will try with baked beans.

I have to say I agree with MDugal the traditional version is so much tastier and comforting.I also agree that it is also better with poached egg.

a traditional corned beef hash is much nicer and has more flavour than this frying pan version

my husband loved this dish and said I could make it any time for him. I added garlic as suggested and served with beans with a dash of worcester sauce. He thought it was fab!

Very quick and easy to make. Make on any day of the week. All ingredients are in cupboards. Served with baked beans and enjoy.

I make this for 2 people with a small tin of corned beef, When I add the potatoes into the pan with the onions I also add 3 crushed garlic cloves. Then when the potatoes are golden & crispy I add a crumbled Beef Oxo Cube & then the corned beef. I usually serve this topped with a poached egg which is much nicer.
