I love a plate of warm corned beef hash topped with a runny yolky egg for a comforting breakfast. I am not ashamed to admit that I often make canned corned beef hash as it keeps it simple and ready to make when the mood strikes! This easy canned corned beef hash recipe uses only a few simple ingredients. And makes a tasty breakfast topped with eggs and is gluten free.
Peel and dice potatoes evenly into cubes. Place the diced potatoes in a pan of water with ½ teaspoon salt and bring to a boil for approximately 10 mins until slightly softened but not fully cooked. Drain with a colander and set aside to steam dry.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet or pan over a medium/hot temperature. Add diced onion and minced garlic and cook for 5 minutes.
Carefully add the diced potatoes and let them brown slightly. Stirring gently to ensure that the onions and potatoes cook evenly.
After the potatoes begin to crisp add the diced or shredded corned beef into the pan distributing evenly and continue cooking for a further 5 minutes until the corned beef is hot and potatoes are crispy.
Garnish with chopped parsley and a yolky fried egg if desired.
Notes
I don't feel the need to add any extra salt to the finished dish as the canned corned beef has enough salt added already.SUBSTITUTIONSThis recipe is for how to make corned beef hash using canned corned beef but if you have leftover corned beef brisket you can easily use this instead of canned corned beef. Slice and cube the leftover corned beef and follow the recipe as directed.
