I've found that being pregnant I'll often hear someone talking about some food, then desperately want to have it myself - sometimes that lasts until I get to eat the food, an all consuming desire that has to be sated, but sometimes the craving just goes away. I had the later with Corned Beef a couple of weeks ago. If there'd been a tin near me at that time I would have eaten the lot, but after a few hours I'd forgotten all about corned beef - except the very harassed Phil had gone and bought me some specially.
I decided to make some good old comfort food Corned Beef Hash in place of the soup I had planned for yesterday. When I was midway through cooking it I realised we didn't have one pea or kernel of sweetcorn in the house....so I improvised....with baked beans.
I was pretty happy with the result, lovely chunks of potato, the richness of the meat, the texture of the beans - it isn't the prettiest of dishes though!!
What do you have in your corned beef hash? For me peas and sweetcorn are a must - and I actually prefer it with tinned potatoes used in it!
loooooove corned beef hash, who cares about pretty.
