Tex's Corned Beef 'Tator Hash 🐮

Peel the potatoes and start frying your onions on a medium-low heat in a stockpot. After 3-4 minutes, slice off the fat from the corned beef and stir in to the pan with the onions until it melts. Cook until the onions begin to brown, without being too soft. Tip: corned beef is much easier to slice when it's been kept in the fridge

Cube the potatoes to about ½ to ¾ of an inch, chop the remaining corned beef and add to the pan. Add the hot water. There's plenty of flavour in the skins, so try tying in a muslin pouch, or a ladies hairnet and adding to the pan

Bring to the boil then add the Worcestershire sauce and crumble in the stock cubes. Stir well and cook, uncovered, on a rolling boil for 10 minutes stirring occasionally

Season and stir well (remove the potato skins if using). Taste and if you want a little extra savoury flavour, add another OXO Cube and a splash of Worcestershire. Reduce, uncovered, on a medium-low heat, for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally

When the hash is thick with a little gravy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool, uncovered, and thicken a little more. Reheat when ready to serve in

Serve with brown sauce, pickled red cabbage, pickled beetroot, cream crackers, or crusty bread

Leftovers can be frozen easily in a food container and heated at a later date. This also makes a great pie filling. Simply put in a pie dish, cover with a shortcrust pastry, brush with egg wash, and cook until the pastry is golden brown...
