Corned Beef Potato Skillet
When you think of Corned Beef Skillet there are probably 100s of different recipes to choose from.
It can be hard to know which one to make or if it is even going to be low calorie friendly.
Corned Beef can come with quite a few calories (especially if you don't use the lean stuff). However, once divided up into portions with all the other ingredients, it's not too bad calorie wise for this yummy filling meal.
Best Potatoes For Corned Beef Hash
Potatoes are a regular choice in Corned Beef Hash and it can be hard to choose the right variety of potatoes.
I like to use a yellow flesh potato (red skinned are the best) or yukon golds, these are more waxy type of potato rather than floury and have a lovely buttery taste.
Ensuring Potatoes are Cooked in a Hash Skillet
If you par cook the potatoes first in a saucepan before adding into the hash, you can be sure they well be cooked through and won't still have a hard bite to them. Ensure you choose a waxy potato will ensure the wont disintegrate once cooked and will brown nice in the hash skillet.
I prep often the potatoes the night before which means when I am making the Corned Beef Hash the next day it's a super quick throw all in one pan kind of meal.
Other Vegetables in Corned Beef Hash
As well as the usual potato and onions, I also love to add some green and red peppers into my Corned Beef Hash, it gives a lovely fleck of colour through the hash.
The only seasoning I use is some simple sea salt and lots of black pepper, it really doesn't need anything else.
How to Serve Corned Beef Hash
My perfect way to serve Corned Beef Hash has got to be with eggs, either fried or poached with a soft yolk of course. It's just the perfect combo.
As well as the egg I like to add a few ripe chopped baby roma (grape) tomatoes seasoned with salt and pepper.
What can I do with Corned Beef Hash Leftovers?
Got some Corned Beef Hash leftover that you are wondering what to do with? Turn it into a frittata, seriously it's heavenly.
Just add the leftover hash to an ovenproof skillet and lightly warm up, spreading out evenly on the bottom of the pan.Whisk some eggs, season well and pour into the skillet, let it set underneath and then transfer to the grill to cook the top till lightly golden.
Slice and serve!! A yummy filling frittata.

Nia says
Is this corned beef as in the tinned stuff we get in the UK? I know you are British but living over the pond and whenever I've seen American recipes using corned beef, it looks more like cured beef, or brisket. Looks amazing but wouldn't want to use the wrong thing!
Shevy (Slimming Eats) says
Hi Nia, yes I used the canned stuff for this.
Tracy says
Can you freeze it?
Shevy (Slimming Eats) says
Hi Tracy, it will freeze okay, but is best eaten within a couple of days of making.
Jen says
Can this be made in advance and reheated?
Shevy (Slimming Eats) says
it sure can, I often make up a batch of this to last the week. 🙂
Jo says
Hi, I was wondering which corned beef you used because the syn value on the SlimmingWorld app is much higher
Shevy (Slimming Eats) says
Hi Jo - different brands vary because of fat content. I used one which we get here in the Canada, but you will need to adjust the syns according to the one you use.
