Hash Ingredients
- 3-4 cups diced potatoes of choice, pre-cooked or parboiled
- 2-3 cups corned beef, precooked and diced
- 1 cup carrots, precooked and diced (or frozen)
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 1-2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon table sugar
- 3-4 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons butter
Eggs and Garnish
- 4-6 eggs
- chopped fresh parsley, as garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F to prepare for baking the eggs later in the recipe.
- Sauté Onions: Heat 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat in a 12-inch cast iron skillet. Add the diced yellow onions and cook for 1-2 minutes until they soften and begin to brown.
- Cook Hash: Add the pre-cooked diced potatoes, diced corned beef, diced carrots, paprika, garlic powder, table sugar, and olive oil to the skillet. Sauté the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes turn golden and start to crisp, about 10-15 minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Add more olive oil as needed since the potatoes will absorb some.
- Prepare for Baking Eggs: Using the back of a spoon, create four small wells in the corned beef hash mixture in the skillet.
- Add Eggs and Bake: Crack one egg into each well. Place the skillet into the preheated oven and bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the eggs reach your preferred doneness.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for garnish, and serve immediately.
Notes
- ‘Eye of round’ corned beef is recommended for this recipe as it is leaner and has less fat compared to other cuts.
- This recipe works best with leftover cooked ingredients. If starting from raw potatoes or carrots, parboil them first to ensure they cook evenly and crisp properly in the skillet.
- Start with the recommended amount of spices, especially paprika, to achieve the right color and flavor. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper according to your taste.
