Ingredients
- 3 cups diced russet potatoes You’ll need 3-4 potatoes to get 3 cups.
- 1 cup cooked onions, chopped yellow or white onions.
- 2-3 cups finely chopped cooked corned beef
- 4 tbsp butter salted or unsalted, as you prefer
- 2 dashes of Worcestershire sauce
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Chop your onion, then sauté in butter until translucent.
- Bring 8 cups water to a boil (you’ll need it in a few minutes)
- While water is heating up, rinse, peel and dice potatoes to about 1/4 inch cubes. Set aside in a bowl or Tupperware filled with enough cold water to cover your spuds (this prevents them from turning brown).
- Take your corned beef and finely chop until the pieces are the size of crumbled taco meat.
- Now boil your diced potatoes for 5 minutes. Drain potatoes, rinsing them with fresh cold water to stop the cooking process.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet on medium heat. Add diced boiled potatoes to skillet along with sautéed onion and corned beef. Season with salt and pepper and a couple dashes of Worcestershire sauce.
- Cook until the meat gets nice and crispy, stirring and flipping the mixture often so as not to burn. It usually takes a good 20 minutes to get it to perfection. Serve corned beef hash with pan fried eggs and toast.

Notes
- This recipe serves 4, but you can stretch to 5-6 by adding easy side dishes. Transform this great breakfast into a great, big breakfast by adding a peppery fried egg on toast for each person.
- Or make a “bird’s nest” by clearing a hole in the center of your hash, then cracking 2-3 eggs into the hole after your hash is ready. Cover your skillet/pan, and, and cook just long enough for the egg whites to set. Serve and enjoy!
