Crispy Corned Beef Hash is the way to go with St Patrick’s day leftovers! Don’t forget to add that runny egg on top!

Corned beef is a little bit like pumpkin, what the what I hear you say? Obviously not in the taste sense, but because it only seems to fill the stores for a few months of the year. Plates upon plates of corned beef and cabbage on St Patrick’s Day usually means one thing…Corned Beef Hash for breakfast the next day.

There can’t be many easier recipes to make than corned beef hash. The longest and most boring part is cooking the corned beef and you’ve already done that the day before. All you have to do is boil some potatoes, chop up the corned beef and let it get all crispy and tasty in a skillet. Lastly, and probably the most important stage is adding an egg (or 2) at the last minute.

I love my eggs yolks on the runny side and by using Safest Choice Eggs, I know I can eat that egg safely because it’s been pasteurized using an all natural method. Once the corned beef hash is ready, carefully lay that soft egg on top and dig in. I love to splash it with some hot sauce and watch that yolk pour out all over the crispy corned beef. Some people say that this may be a perfect hangover cure if you drank too much Guinness the night before. Either way you’ll start the day feeling awesome after chowing down on this!
