Corned beef hash
 

Well I just HAD to have some yesterday, so I made a huge pot of it and keep having it fried up crispy with a puddle of ketchup - yummy!

This morning I put it on my update on Facebook and those of my friends from 'daaaarn saaarf' haven't heard of it. Is corned beef hash just a northern thing, like peas pudding?:confused:

I'd never had it nor neard of it til meeting my ex who was Derbys born, Yorks bred.... but fried? Nah. Kind of glooped together - corned beef, onions, diced cooked spuds, an oxo cube and then served with ketchup.
nb it's pease pudding. Don't ask me why!

No Oxo - but sage for us!

I'm from the south - both parents Eastend born and bred, growing up I was given that awful dollop of pease pudding next to my yummy bit of ham and mash, I feel the same about butter beans - there are just some things that shouldn't be placed on a plate. As for corned beef hash - yummy, I still make it myself - possibly to a different method, I dunno, I just do what my mum does. Boiled the spuds, then fry together with onion and corned beef, add tinned tomatoes and sometimes eggs too. Season to taste. I actually bought a couple of tins of corned beef yesterday to have in my cupboard to make this delicacy :thumbsup:

Chop onion and fry well
Add sage

Boil and mash tatties - add a little milk and butter and some s + p
OR
USE NEW POTS and just chop them up a bit

Chop corned beef into cubes
Stir into mash/pots a bit but don't break it up too much.

Make into pattie shapes and fry till crisp both sides.
Yum!

Bet you make some sooner than planned!:lol:

I'm Yorkshire born and bred.
I grew up on Corned beef hash.

Thow diced onion and diced potatoes into a pan.
Cover with water, boil until pots no longer crunchy.
Add diced corned beef.
Pepper to season.
And serve with doorsteps of proper bread and real butter.....yummy.

Only thing better is eating it the next day, it improves the flavours.

We used to have it this way too, but my mum called them Corned beef fritters.

Re: Corned beef hash
 

My family receipe for Corned Beef Hash is basically to boil up some spuds, chop up the corned beef into cubs and them mash the whole lot together and stick it back into the oven until its gets a crispy crust...........yum yum

I am from Scotland and we cooked corned beef hash both here and back home. I carmalise my onions before mixing through. I also add half a can of baked beans in tomato sauce - I used to tell my kids it was cowboy pie :thumbsup:

Re: Corned beef hash
 

Never any left! This sounds like my ex's recipe (oxo was obviously an add-on!) .... oh & we didn't eat the b&b doorsteps, but I remember his mum & dad in Brid always having b&b with everything so maybe that's a Yorkshire thing.

Re: Corned beef hash
 

I've heard of it, never tried it, but it sounds awful. Although I must admit I'm probably not the right person to answer this as my mum's cooking basically involved microwaving frozen pizza's.

My mom used to make that when I was a kid, and we were in California but never did like it, and still dont like it.

Re: Corned beef hash
 

I grew up on the stuff, bloody lazy parents. Yuck :thumbdown:

Re: Corned beef hash
 

Each to their own. You couldn't make it in a microwave or buy it in a shop (I think :ohmy:) so lazy's a relative term!

Re: Corned beef hash
 

The very fact that most of us that grew up eating corned beef hash come from traditionally poorer (in times past) areas of the UK shows that it was born out of lack of funds for more exotic fayre not laziness I think.

But whatever, there is still nothing better on a cold winters day, so most of us continue to eat it even though we can afford not too.:D
