Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups cooked corned beef chilled and diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 large yellow onion finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • Salt to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • 1 Large Cast-Iron Skillet A 12-inch skillet is ideal.
  • 1 Medium Pot
  • 1 Spatula

Method
 

  1. Place diced potatoes in a pot, cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 5-7 minutes until just fork-tender. Drain completely and let them steam-dry.
  2. In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, melt butter and olive oil. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 5-6 minutes.
  3. Add the par-boiled potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Cook without stirring for 4-5 minutes to form a crust. Continue cooking for another 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy on all sides.
  4. Add the diced corned beef, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper to the skillet. Press the mixture down firmly with a spatula and cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes. Scrape, flip in sections, and press down again. Cook for another 5 minutes until crispy.
  5. While the hash cooks, prepare eggs to your liking (fried or poached is recommended). Serve the hash immediately, topped with an egg and a garnish of fresh parsley.

Notes

Tip 1: For the crispiest hash, make sure your potatoes are well-dried after boiling. Moisture is the enemy of a good crust.
Tip 2: Don't be afraid to let the hash sit in the pan without stirring. This contact with the hot surface is what creates that delicious, crispy texture.
Tip 3: Using a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet will give you the best results and a non-stick surface.
