DELUXE CORNED BEEF HASH

Steps:

• Melt butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the onion just until it begins to brown, about 8 minutes; stir in the potatoes and carrot, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cubed corned beef, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture cook until hash is crisp and browned, stirring often, 10 to 15 more minutes.

EMILY'S FAMOUS HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Rinse shredded potatoes until water is clear, then drain and squeeze dry. Place shreds in a bowl, and mix in the onion, flour and egg until evenly distributed.
• Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is sizzling hot, place potatoes into the pan in a 1/2 inch thick layer. Cover the whole bottom of the pan, or make separate piles like pancakes. Cook until nicely browned on the bottom, then flip over and brown on the other side. It should take at least 5 minutes per side. If you are cooking them in one big piece, it can be cut into quarters for easier flipping.
• Remove from pan, and drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

BREAKFAST HASH

Steps:

• Line a plate with a paper towel and set aside. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the bacon, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the bacon to the lined plate with a slotted spoon or spatula.
• Remove all but 2 tablespoons of grease from the skillet, reserving the remaining grease. Fry the eggs in the bacon fat for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a plate and cover with a paper towel to keep warm.
• Add 1 more tablespoon bacon grease and turn up the heat to high. Add the sweet potatoes, parsnips, Brussels sprouts, onion, garlic and some salt and pepper, then cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes. Deglaze the pan with 1/4 cup of water, then put the lid on and steam for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Place fried eggs on top of hash and sprinkle over the bacon, diced tomatoes, goat cheese, parsley and basil.

POTATO HASH WITH A FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and add oil. When oil is hot, add onion and a sprinkling of salt. Stir until onion begins to soften, about 1 minute.
• Add potato and cayenne to pan. Reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring frequently, until potatoes and onions are tender, caramelized and lightly browned, 30 minutes.
• Push potato and onion hash to one side of pan, and increase heat. Crack egg into pan, and cook to taste. Spoon potatoes and onions on plate, and top with egg.

CRISPY HASH BROWN

Steps:

• Heat 3 Tbsp of oil in a large frying pan on medium high heat.
• While the pan is heating, squeeze out as much moisture as you can from the grated potatoes. It's easiest to do this with a potato ricer, using it much like you would a garlic press, except you don't force the potatoes through the ricer. You just press out the moisture. If you don't have a ricer, use paper towels to squeeze out as much moisture as you can from the grated potatoes.
• When the oil in the pan heats up to the point of shimmering, but not smoking, add the grated potatoes, spreading them out along the bottom of the pan. The potatoes should not be too thick in any one place, no more than a half inch thick. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on the potatoes. After a few minutes, lift up one edge of the potatoes and see how done they are. If they have fried to a golden brown they are ready to flip. Use a large spatula to flip the potatoes over all at once, or divide the large potato cake into halves or quarters and flip. Continue to cook until they are golden brown on the bottom.

CORNED BEEF HASH

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cook for about 6-7 mins, then drain.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the onion for 3-4 mins over a medium heat. Add the potatoes and corned beef, and push down with a spatula to crisp up, cooking for about 5 mins. Turn the mixture over, trying not to break up the meat and potatoes too much, then add the Worcestershire sauce. Cook for another 5 mins, pushing down to crisp the base again. Season a little, then serve with baked beans and a sprinkling of parsley, if you like.
