Corned Beef Hash Potatoes (Print)
A savory mix of tender corned beef, crispy potatoes, and vegetables for a satisfying skillet meal.
# Ingredient list:
→ Meats
01 - 12 oz cooked corned beef, diced
→ Vegetables
02 - 1 lb russet potatoes, peeled and diced into ½-inch cubes
03 - 1 medium onion, finely chopped
04 - 1 small green bell pepper, diced
05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
06 - 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
→ Pantry
07 - 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
08 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
09 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
10 - ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
→ Eggs for Serving
11 - 4 large eggs
# Directions:
01 - Place diced potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and simmer 5–7 minutes until just tender. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
02 - Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper, sauté 3–4 minutes until softened and translucent.
03 - Stir in minced garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
04 - Add drained potatoes to skillet. Cook undisturbed 4–5 minutes to develop a golden-brown crust on one side.
05 - Add diced corned beef and smoked paprika. Toss to combine, then press mixture into an even layer. Cook undisturbed 4–5 minutes until bottom crisps and browns. Season with salt and pepper.
06 - Flip hash sections in batches and cook 3–4 minutes until the second side achieves similar crispiness.
07 - Push hash to skillet edges. Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to center and crack in eggs. Fry to desired doneness—sunny-side up or over-easy recommended.
08 - Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Transforms leftover corned beef into something better than the original feast
- The crispy potato edges and tender beef create the perfect texture contrast in every bite
02 -
- Resist the urge to stir constantly, the crust only forms when you let the hash cook undisturbed
- Parcooking the potatoes prevents them from staying raw in the center while the exterior burns
03 -
- Cut all ingredients to roughly the same size so everything cooks evenly
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet if you have one for the best browning
