Directions

Prepare the potatoes: In a medium pot, add the diced potatoes and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes or until the potatoes are just tender. Drain and set aside.
Cook the corned beef: In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper (if using) and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add garlic and spices: Add the minced garlic and smoked paprika (if using), and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cook the hash: Add the cooked corned beef and potatoes to the skillet. Stir well to combine. Press the mixture into an even layer in the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes without stirring to get a nice crispy bottom. Stir occasionally to ensure even crisping.
Season the hash: Taste the hash and season with salt and pepper as needed. Continue cooking for another 3-5 minutes until everything is crispy and golden.
Optional eggs: If you like, fry 2 eggs in another pan to serve on top of the corned beef hash. Alternatively, you can make small wells in the hash, crack an egg into each well, cover, and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are runny.
Serve: Serve the corned beef hash hot, garnished with fresh parsley and with the eggs on top if desired.

10 Tips for Cooking Corned Beef Hash

Use leftover corned beef: Corned beef hash is a great way to use leftover corned beef from a previous meal. If you don’t have leftovers, you can cook a small portion of corned beef just for this dish.
Crisp the potatoes well: The key to great hash is crispy potatoes. Don’t be afraid to let them cook and brown in the skillet without stirring too often.
Customise with vegetables: Feel free to add extra veggies like bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach for added flavour and nutrition.
Use a mix of butter and oil: The combination of butter and oil gives a perfect balance of flavour and ensures a crisp texture without burning.
Add seasoning for extra flavour: While salt and pepper are classic, smoked paprika, thyme, or even a dash of hot sauce can really elevate the taste.
Fry the eggs separately: If you prefer your eggs with runny yolks, fry them separately and add them to the hash just before serving.
Use fresh herbs: Garnish your hash with freshly chopped parsley or chives to add a pop of colour and freshness.
Double the recipe: Corned Beef Hash is great for meal prep. Double the recipe and store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Serve with toast: If you’re looking for more carbs to complete the meal, serve the hash with toasted bread or an English muffin on the side.
Make it spicy: Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to spice things up.

Serve It With Suggestions

Corned Beef Hash is delicious on its own, but here are a few side ideas to round out the meal:

Toast or English Muffins: Serve with crispy toast or an English muffin to soak up any extra sauce or egg yolk.
Roasted Vegetables: Pair with roasted Brussels sprouts or a light salad to balance the richness of the hash.
Fruit: Fresh fruit or a fruit salad can provide a refreshing contrast to the savory hash.
Sautéed Greens: Sautéed spinach, kale, or Swiss chard would add a burst of colour and nutrients to the meal.
Baked Beans: A side of baked beans complements the hearty flavors of the hash.
