Corned beef hash is a scrumptious breakfast dish–that could just as easily be eaten at lunch or dinner–consisting of cooked corned beef and potatoes, along with a smattering of other things. You might be familiar with the corned beef variety that comes in a can and heats up on the stove, but what we didn ‘t realize until recently is how amazing this stuff is when you make it yourself!
We love corned beef hash on its own, but adding eggs to the recipe makes it perfect for a filling breakfast or brunch, and making it this way means you can serve it to a group of friends or family with pride. We love the crispy bits in this and we know you ‘ll love making it and serving it .who doesn ‘t love mashing things together and leaving them to cook and work their magic?!
