Yummy Corned Beef Hash is so Easy

The leftover corned beef was from the weekend and I had cooked it in the Instant Pot, the easiest thing ever. Here’s the link for that recipe: https://the2spoons.com/simple-instant-pot-corned-beef/.

Corned Beef and Cabbage

All I did on the hash was to first sauté the carrots and green onions in a little butter and extra virgin olive oil. Then I added my potatoes (which are cooked) and on high heat browned a little before I added my corned beef. After I added my corned beef, I continued to brown pressing down a little to form kind of a patty, making sure though that it doesn’t become mushy.

Yummy Corned Beef Hash is so Easy

Here’s the recipe! If you don’t have leftover corned beef you can use deli corned beef but have them slice thick. You want chunks of the corned beef. I poached eggs which are so easy after you get the hang of it. Perfectly cooked they add a sauce to the dish and bring everything together! Hope you try this recipe and enjoy!

Cuisine: American, Irish

Ingredients Method

Ingredients

2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 carrots grated on your large hole box grater
1 bunch green onions, tops and bottoms
3-4 cups leftover or thick sliced deli corned beef cubed
poached or fried eggs

Method

Add your butter and evoo to a large skillet and heat to medium high. Add your grated carrots, stirring to make sure they don't burn until they are soft. Add your green onions and cook about 2 minutes. Add the cottage fries, combine with the carrots and onions, increase the heat and allow the potatoes to sit and brown on that side. After they have browned, turn them and allow the next side to brown a little. Add your cubed corned beef and continue to cook, pressing down just a little until browned and your corned beef is heated through.
Divide among 4 plates or bowls and top with one or two either fried or poached eggs. Serve with toast, biscuits ore a crusty French bread.
*To poach the eggs, Crack your eggs into a bowl, two at a time. Fill a small saucepan with water about halfway and bring to a boil. Add about a teaspoon vinegar. With a spoon or whisk, stir the water in a circular motion to create a whirlpool and add your first egg, then the second egg. Allow the eggs to cook. They will start to come together. After a few minutes, using a slotted spoon, lift the eggs one at a time so you can feel them for your desired doneness. When done, remove to a kitchen towel or paper towel, then top your hash with the desired amount of eggs per plate.

Servings: 2 servings

Course: Breakfast

Cuisine: American

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

For the Grits

1 cup quick grits
4 cups water
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated

For the Poached Eggs

4 large eggs
enough water to cover the eggs
2 tbsp white vinegar

For the Mushrooms

6 oz button mushrooms, sliced
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper

For The Spinach

1 Recipe Sauted Spinach https://the2spoons.com/garlicky-sauteed-spinach-red-pepper-flakes/

Method

For the Grits

Bring 4 cups water to a boil along with the salt. Add the grits continuously whisking until combined. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook the grits until they have thickened. If they become too thick add a little water and whisk. Add the cheese and combine until melted.

For the Mushrooms

Melt the butter and add the extra virgin olive oil to a skillet. Heat to medium-high. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden brown, a little caramelized. After the mushrooms have gotten a golden brown season to taste with a little salt and pepper.

For the Poached Eggs

In a saucepan bring enough water to cover the eggs along with the vinegar to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Break the eggs, one at a time into a ramekin. Stir the water to start a circular motion and drop the egg into the swirling water. Cook for about 4 minutes. Continue until all 4 eggs are cooked. You can cook a couple at a time…or if you have a large pan, all 4 at a time, you just want to have them all in ramekins that you add to the wanter one after the other so they will evenly cook.

To assemble the dish

Pour the grits into a wide bowl. Scatter with the mushrooms, add the sauteed spinach, then top with the poached eggs. Bon Appetite!!

Notes

If you prefer stone ground grits, follow the instructions and add the cheese at the end. I use both.
