Corned Beef Hash

[@kevinbyrne4538]

In the States, hash is fried at low heat for quite a while so that it forms a crust, then you flip it over to form a crust on the other side. I also add a pinch of cayenne pepper. Some people add diced sweet/bell pepper.

[@dabblingwithbonsai]

That's called pyttipannu in Finnish, tho we use boiled potatoes from previous day and sausage instead of canned meat. Lazy days food 🤭 cool! Love your shawl/scarf, Mrs. K 💕

[@AlfOfAllTrades]

Norway: Pytt i panne.

[@DovidM]

Day old potatoes are recommended for making hash and “cottage fries” or “home fries”. It is much less likely that the hash will be crispy if they were made from potatoes cooked the same day.

Nice to see you using Henderson’s Relish.

[@shirleytemple5978]

Love watching you keef love your basic recipes

[@aeonturnip2]

Nice one Keef! Very different from my Mum's one pot version - a tin of corned beef, a tin of new potatoes, a tin of peas, a tin of chopped carrots, and a tin of baked beans. An OXO cube and some brown sauce to season it. Just put it all in a pan and bring it to the boil, and add a bit of water if it's too dry. Sound horrendous, tastes great, and everything out of a tin (very 70's), so it's brilliant emergency food. Yours sounds a bit posh but probably a lot nicer!

[@jonathansayers9964]

Happy birthday, Keef! I’m usually on here to view ASMR, but I find your channel to be equally pleasant and comforting . . . and the cooking pointers are a bonus. Thank you for sharing! I wish you better luck with your next corned beef can.

[@andrewfitzgerald4489]

I made this dish tonight for dinner after watching your video last night it was a massive success compared how i usually make it

[@JTMusicbox]

It was great when you did this 5 years ago and it’s great now! Better video quality this time and I love that broad bowl you’re using! Fried egg with runny yolk makes most good things even better!

[@paulakpacente]

Back again. I LOVE your "accent"! Many years ago I studied LOTS of British history at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I had hoped for years to visit your country, but it just wasn't in the cards... I made hash and eggs this week, and the Worcestershire sauce was a hit! Thanks for the tip!

[@lfcmonkeyyyman6229]

I have to admit, the way you have made this today seems better than the way my mum used to make it, with the corned beef and potato all mashed up together, then fried and served with beans.. your way looks yummier with the oxo flavoured crispy edge potatoes, the onions and the corned beef still holding its shape albeit in little cubes.. Will definitely try your way. Corned beef originally came in square cans because it was designed to be supplied to the military. ... Corned beef continues to be sold in square cans because it's distinctive packaging and makes the cans conspicuous on a shelf. And the key is supplied as it is difficult to open a square can with a tin opener!!

[@Parker6432]

A Sunbeam electric can-opener will open the wide end of those corned beef cans. We have the silly things in New Zealand and Australia, but recently I've seen 'round' tins with a tear-tab :)

[@raphaelbernard7954]

[@greenGaming_uk]

you can open the can safely with a can opener.....3 cans in a sentence, great recipe i will have to give a try I normally do the quick way of using mash potatoes and mix in the corned beef

[@Keefcooks]

Can-can dancers can can-can the can open, Suzi Quattro can also can the can. Nine cans!

[@Nannerchan]

Corned beef is in the package that is because it is solid packed. I once bought it in a traditional round package packed in liquid and it was spoiled and nasty. I threw out two cans. I like a runny yolk. It makes a nice sauce.

[@brendarigdonsbrensden.8350]

[@monitortop]

First, happy birthday to you. Next, we have learned from another site that our friends at KZbin like lots of comments, even stupid/irritating ones (of which blessedly, you receive relatively few) as a signifier of "engagement" -- so I hope all of us who love this channel can find a minute to routinely "engage" our little hearts out. Re: getting the corned beef out of the can, it was apparently common knowledge that one should make a vent hole with a can-opener or something in the top of the can to help dislodge the stuff. I only discovered this recently, and it does seem to help. All that to one side, I still think you should get a lucrative sponsorship from those Strong Northern People at Hendo's. Without Keef Cooks, there would not be a bottle gracing my US kitchen at this moment, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

[@suemiller9842]

Another comfort food from my childhood was prairie chicken, with no chicken in sight! A tin of corned beef is sliced into 1cm slices, Some brands cut best when cold from the fridge. slices dunked into batter, egg, flour and beer and fried until golden. The potato is also sliced and then dunked into the left over batter and fried. YUM!

[@Keefcooks]

Never come across that name, but basically I'd call that a corned beef fritter.

I was telling my daughter about the way they used to come and the viciously sharp edges figured prominently in the description. Very nice wrap, Mrs KC!

[@kath-phlox]

I love my own version, it's all in one pot, fried onions first, add potatoes (these must be cut into pyramids so the thin edge adds to the sauce and the rest stays whole), OXO, mixed herbs, salt and pepper, corned beef, I keep a bit back for after it's cooked and add it later in the warm up. Serve with pickled onion or beetroot. I had this for 2 night this week. I love steak and lamb chops plus all those exotic dishes I make - but this is beats them all. A true northern corned beef hash is to die for.

You can always crack the egg on to top of the completed corned beef hash and put a lid on it! Looks great whatever way you do it!

I've never seen two corned beef hash's (what the plural of hash?) look the same. Everybody seems to make it differently. My granddad would mash into a pulp, my dad likes it chunky and I like it somewhere in between. I've even seen someone boil the corned beef with the potatoes.

Happy birthday Keef! 🎂🎉🎈🎁🍹 Hope you have a lovely day, it's the same birthday as our oldest great granddaughter who will be 15. 😊 Funny you should mention your hash needed salt. I recently bought corned beef for the first time in years and made a pie out of the hash, and it also needed a bit of salt, which I'd omitted because the corned beef I recalled was always very salty. The amorphous 'they' must have fiddled with it to make it more 'healthy.' I'll know next time, if there is one. 😉 Cheers, and take care.

[@jackieblakemore56]

Hello Keef,, I must say, I’ve never known Corned beef hash, cooked like that before. It was more of a stew thing. It’s also very healthy as only contains , corned beef, potatoes, carrots , onions and stock. (Salt and pepper to taste) It’s all put in the pan at the same time and takes about half an hour in total to cook. There’s no adding of loads of oil or eggs??

[@albertamccrary5996]

I never heard of the stew, I should try it someday. I always made fried potatoes and added green chili's and the corned beef along with homemade Navajo tortillas.

[@andyrjs]

Greatest discovery of my life was realising that taking the paper label off the corned beef tin before opening made it so much easier.

They use that stupid shape to maximise the number of tins that can be packed in a given shipping container, at least that's my theory. As for the stupid key, we got a tin recently from Aldi and inevitably the key would not pick up the tab. On close inspection, the tab was soldered down over nearly its entire length, so out with the kitchen blowtorch and long nosed pliers, worked a treat. No kitchen should be without a blow torch, and not just for wanky 'fine dining: recipes, something Keef is not guilty of, mercifully. Wanky fine dining with 2 prawns on a bed of some green shit, or a single scallop on a bed of cauliflower puree, no thanks. Bloke would starve if he went fine dining, gimme a dogs eye and dead horse any day!

I have a Corned Beef Can Opener key extracted from its bandage of can and held on a magnet on my fridge door. Since it has been there mayber two or three years I have never lost one of those Keys. I like it with a bigger proportion of potato and as you suggested any green vegatable mixed through. I like it chuncky, more so than yours. Do not like it all mashed down into a thick paste as I have seen it done elsewhere. I have only seen one other KZbin presenter eat their grub with more relish, a lovely lass on Souped Up Recipes and she polishes of an enormous plate or bowl of Chinese.

I do this when I do roasts - extra gravy thickening!
