Introduction:
Looking for a flavorful, comforting dish that brings a nostalgic twist to your meal? Classic Corned Beef Hash with Crispy Potatoes is the answer! This dish brings together tender corned beef, crispy potatoes, and a savory blend of seasonings that make for the ultimate breakfast, brunch, or dinner. Whether you’re using leftovers or preparing it fresh, this recipe is a crowd-pleaser that satisfies every craving with its balance of textures and rich flavors.

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked corned beef, chopped into small cubes
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced into small cubes
1 medium onion, diced
1 bell pepper, diced (optional)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil (or butter for extra richness)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for extra flavor)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
2 eggs (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
Prepare the Potatoes: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes and season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides (about 10-12 minutes). Once cooked, transfer them to a plate and set aside.

Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the diced onion, bell pepper (if using), and minced garlic until softened and fragrant, about 4-5 minutes.

Combine Corned Beef: Add the chopped corned beef to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir everything together and cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the corned beef to heat through and develop a little bit of crispy edges.

Reintroduce the Potatoes: Add the crispy potatoes back into the skillet, mixing everything together. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure the flavors are well combined.

Serve: For a complete breakfast or brunch, top with a fried or poached egg. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Tips for Serving and Storing:
Serving Suggestions: Serve this dish with a side of toast or some hot sauce for an added kick. For a fuller breakfast, you can pair it with avocado slices or a side salad for extra freshness.

Storing: Leftover corned beef hash can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat, adding a bit of oil or butter to restore the crispiness. Alternatively, it can be stored in the freezer for up to a month.
