The other thread got me thinking ;) ;)
swmbo and I have recently been discussing this very meal and disagree as to what it is, we have differing versions...... ::)
What do you consider Corned Beef Hash to be.... :D
-
corned beef and mash mixed up :y
-
Corned Beef, Mashed Spuds and diced onion, pressed into a Patty and fried ;) ;)
-
Half mashed, half boiled potatoes, cooked but lumpy, diced onion, corned beef (of course) diced & stirred in, heat gently in a light stock & season with proper rock salt & ground black pepper.
My guilty secret is to stir in a knob of butter just before serving....mmmmmmmm.... :P

Paul. Try left over mash with spring onion & cabbage if you like patties. Kind of an irish dish like champ or cullcan whotsit..can't spell it but tastes great. :y

You are more than welcome to try....... :D :D :D

Sounds like stovies....
Spuds, the really dry ones, boiled to almost mush in just enough water with an oxo cube or two, with diced onion, all just cooked but not too mushy. Still with hardish bits in the spuds.
When to the consistancy of good shoveling cement/slurry, add diced corned beef and stir....
Serve with copious fresh ground black pepper and crusty bread and butter.
Food of the gods..... :y

How strange, this is what I cooked last night, and even tho' I say it myself it was rather good, and SWMBO AGREED.
Serves 2
Ingredients
7 oz (200 g) tinned corned beef
2 large, very fresh eggs
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 rounded teaspoon grain mustard
1 large onion
10 oz (275 g) Desirée or King Edward potatoes
2-3 tablespoons groundnut or other flavourless oil
salt and freshly milled black pepper
You will also need a heavy-based frying pan approximately 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter, a slightly smaller frying pan for the eggs and two plates placed in a warming oven.
Method
Start this off by cutting the corned beef in half lengthways, then, using a sharp knife, cut each half into four ½ inch (1 cm) pieces. Now chop these into ½ inch (1 cm) dice, then scoop them all up into a bowl. Combine the Worcestershire sauce and mustard in a cup and pour this all over the beef, mixing it around to distribute it evenly.
Now peel and halve the onion, cut the halves into thin slices and then cut these in half. The potatoes need to be washed and cut into ½ inch (1 cm) cubes, leaving the skin on, then place the cubes in a saucepan. Pour enough boiling water from the kettle to almost cover them, then add salt and a lid and simmer for just 5 minutes before draining them in a colander and then covering with a clean tea cloth to absorb the steam.
Now heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in the frying pan and, when it's smoking hot, add the sliced onions and toss them around in the oil to brown for about 3 minutes altogether, keeping the heat high, as they need to be very well browned at the edges.
After that, push all the onions to the edge of the pan and, still keeping the heat very high, add the potatoes and toss these around, too, because they also need to be quite brown. Add a little more oil here if necessary. Now add some seasoning, then, using a pan slice, keep turning the potatoes and onions over to hit the heat. After about 6 minutes, add the beef and continue to toss everything around to allow the beef to heat through (about 3 minutes).
After that, turn the heat down to its lowest setting and, in the smaller frying pan, fry the eggs in the remaining oil (. Serve the hash divided between the two warm plates with an egg on top of each and don't forget to have plenty of tomato ketchup on the table.
THANK YOU Delia

Corned beef fact: the price of a tin or corned beef has ncreased from 36p two years ago to £1.53 at todays price I don't know what % increase that is and can't be arsed working it out (no doubt someone will though :y) just think if you applied that & increase to petrol prices what would be paying to fill up now? :o
-
I normally throw some baked beans in with mine as well :y
-
Corn Dog, as we call it is a plain povvie dish. I think my nan would be spinning in her grave at the thought of beef stock in it. Although a fried egg on the top goes well :)

Its got to have beans in it!! ;)

Yeah started the thread 'What you had for dinner/tea'
I said corned beef hash.....
Well my missus does it the way her mother did it.
Rather like cottage pie but with corned beef
Fry the corned beef with onion and carrots (finely chopped) add spices to taste. Put it in an oven dish, make your mash and add to the top. Finish it off in the oven to lightly brown the top, as you would a cottage pie. Serve with other veg and gravy :y
Mick ;)

havent had one in about 10 years.....
but was boiled spuds mashed into cornbeef, and fried for a bit, then under the grill to brown.
may have to have a go for old times sake, but spice it up a bit, red onion in etc.
always had ours with fried potatoes too (par boiled spud, sliced to 1/2 inch, and fried) Lovely!

It would seem many of these traditional dishes merge into one another to a degree over the years & regions. Stovies/corned beef hash, Cullwhatnot/champ/bubble & squeak etc. All mighty fine tucker by anyones standards.
However in my humble opinion the most varied dish is Shepherds/Cottage pie.........
How do you make yours? :P
-
take the previously detailed delia recipe, add some shredded leeks about halfway thru the potato stage... and then afterwards a tin of chopped tomatoes and 2 tins of beans... and cook gently until the potatoes are threatening , but not quite ready, to collapse into mashy mush.... so there's still texture , but the excess liquid is absorbed. stir GENTLY but make sure you don't burn it to the base of the pan
serve with hot crusty rolls and soft butter. and grated extra mature cheddar
THAT is my Corn beef hash...
it's pretty damn good..... (James&Maria amongst others can attest to the standard of my cooking.... i suggest you try this version before knocking it... )

Vamps.. That sounds more like a version of Panackelty to me, rather than Corned Beef Hash, which was always done in our family to the same spec. as quoted by Lazydocker. :y

my version was just to take some baked spuds ,scoop out the potato and mix it with corned beef, onion and seasoning, then use the mixture to fill up the empty skins, top with cheese, grill then serve with baked beans. Nice and simple :y
