Ingredients
  

  • 750 g Maris Piper or Russet potatoes peeled and chopped
  • 340 g tinned corned beef diced
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Optional: 2 fried eggs for serving

Equipment

  • Large frying pan
  • Spatula
  • Saucepan
  • Chopping board
  • Knife

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Boil the chopped potatoes in salted water for 6-8 minutes until just tender. Drain and let steam dry for a few minutes.
  2. Sauté the Onions: Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Crisp the Potatoes: Add the remaining oil to the pan, then add the boiled potatoes. Cook undisturbed for 5 minutes until golden and crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the Corned Beef: Stir in the diced corned beef and Worcestershire sauce. Press the mixture into an even layer and cook for another 5 minutes to develop a crispy crust.
  5. Final Touches: Season with black pepper, adjust salt if needed, and serve hot. Optionally, top with a fried egg for extra flavour.
