Crisp Tempura Poached Egg Over English Muffin With Red Pepper Corned Beef Hash Recipes

POACHED EGGS ON ENGLISH MUFFINS WITH HELGA'S HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• For the English muffins: Whisk together the flour and instant yeast in a large bowl.
• In a large measuring cup, combine the water, milk, melted butter, sugar and salt.
• Slowly add the liquid to the flour mixture, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth. (The dough should be loose and sticky, not runny.) Cover and let rest in a warm place for 30 minutes or until doubled in volume.
• Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat; spray liberally with nonstick spray. Place six 4-inch tart rings on the griddle; spray the inside of each ring liberally (see Cook's Note).
• Using a large cookie scoop or 1/2 cup measuring cup sprayed with nonstick spray, fill the rings halfway with batter. (I spray my fingers and use them to push the batter to the edge of the rings, since it doesn't spread as easily as, say, pancake batter.) Griddle the muffins for ten minutes.
• Flip the muffins, using tongs or a spatula, and griddle for another 10 minutes. (I find that the griddle oil starts to blacken at this point, and if I'm feeling like a perfectionist, I'll remove the muffins to a cooling rack, wipe down the griddle, and respray it to keep the muffins from getting too dark on the reverse side.)
• For the hollandaise: Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, and a pinch each of salt and white pepper in a blender; blend until combined. With the blender running, slowly pour in the melted butter. Blend until emulsified, about 30 seconds.
• For the poached eggs: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add 1 tablespoon water to 6 cups of a standard muffin pan, then crack an egg into each cup. Bake for 11 minutes for a soft yolk; the exact time will vary depending on your oven and preferred level of doneness.
• To assemble: Slice an English muffin in half. Top with a slice of tomato and a strip of bacon. Using a rubber spatula, slide a poached egg from the muffin pan and place it on top of the bacon. Drizzle with hollandaise sauce, and serve with the top half of the muffin on the side.

CORNED BEEF HASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the diced russet and sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place onto a baking sheet and roast until golden and crisp, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over a medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook until the onions are translucent and starting to turn golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the corned beef, potatoes and steak seasoning. Cook for another couple of minutes to heat the corned beef through. Add the Worcestershire sauce and stir.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to a nonstick skillet and fry the eggs to your liking, seasoning with salt and pepper if desired. Top the skillet of corned beef hash with the fried eggs, hot sauce to taste and parsley leaves. Serve.

CORNED BEEF HASH

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 12-inch cast iron skillet set over medium heat. Add the bell pepper and cook until it begins to brown slightly, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic, corned beef and cabbage, thyme, oregano and black pepper to the skillet and stir to combine. Once combined, spread the hash evenly over the pan and firmly press down with a spatula. Place a heavy lid, heatproof plate or second pan directly atop the hash and allow to cook until browned, approximately 10 minutes. After 10 minutes stir mixture, press down again, top with the lid and allow to cook another 5 to 6 minutes, or until browned. Serve immediately.
• *Cook's note: Brisket should be prepared through the brining stage, but not cooked.
• Place the corned beef, pepper, allspice, bay leaves and salt into a large 8-quart pot along with 3-quarts of water. Cover and set over high heat. Bring to a boil, decrease the heat to low and cook, at a low simmer for 2 1/2 hours.
• After 2 1/2 hours add the carrots, onions, potatoes and celery. Return to a simmer and cook uncovered for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, add the cabbage and cook for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until the potatoes and cabbage are tender. Remove the bay leaves and serve immediately.
• Place the water into a large 6 to 8 quart stockpot along with salt, sugar, saltpeter, cinnamon stick, mustard seeds, peppercorns, cloves, allspice, juniper berries, bay leaves and ginger. Cook over high heat until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the ice. Stir until the ice has melted. If necessary, place the brine into the refrigerator until it reaches a temperature of 45 degrees F. Once it has cooled, place the brisket in a 2-gallon zip top bag and add the brine. Seal and lay flat inside a container, cover and place in the refrigerator for 10 days. Check daily to make sure the beef is completely submerged and stir the brine.
• After 10 days, remove from the brine and rinse well under cool water. Place the brisket into a pot just large enough to hold the meat, add the onion, carrot and celery and cover with water by 1-inch. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and gently simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until the meat is fork tender. Remove from the pot and thinly slice across the grain.

CORNED BEEF HASH BROWN MUFFALETTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Add the green olives, kalamata olives, giardiniera, capers, parsley, vinegar, olive oil and honey to a food processor and pulse to make a coarse relish.
• Slice the boule in half horizontally. Spread the tapenade evenly over both halves of the boule. Layer the cheese evenly over the tapenade on the bottom half of the boule. Place both top and bottom halves cut-side up beside each other on the sheet pan.
• Lay the hot hash browns on top of the cheese, then evenly pile on the corned beef. Bake the open sandwich until the cheese is melted and the corned beef is warmed through, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over low heat. Working with one egg at a time, crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin and then slowly add it to the skillet. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook, uninterrupted, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Season the eggs with pepper. Slide the eggs onto a plate.
• Top the corned beef with the sunny-side up eggs. Place the top piece of bread onto the sandwich. Cut into 4 wedges and serve.

LEFTOVER CORNED BEEF BREAKFAST HASH

Steps:

• In a nonstick pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper, mushrooms, onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until lightly caramelized, about 4 minutes. Add the corned beef and potatoes and cook until the potatoes begin to crisp, about 5 minutes; try not to move the pan to allow the potatoes and meat to brown. Season with salt and pepper. Add the scallions and toss.
• In a separate nonstick pan with some oil, cook the eggs sunny-side up or over easy, depending on your preference. A runny egg is best for this dish so it will be creamy when mixed with the hash.
• Put the hash on a plate and top with the eggs. Garnish with additional scallions.

POACHED EGGS IN A MUFFIN TIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Pour about 1 tablespoon water into each cup of a 12-cup muffin tin, then crack an egg into each. Bake until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to the desired runniness, 10 to 15 minutes.
