A hearty and crispy corned beef hash breakfast skillet topped with sunny-side up fried eggs, perfect for a quick and satisfying weekend brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups potatoes (about 2 medium Yukon Gold, peeled and diced)
  • 1 can (12 oz / 340g) corned beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small bell pepper, diced (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel and dice about 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes into roughly ½-inch cubes. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a clean towel. Allow 5 minutes.
  2. Parboil the diced potatoes in salted boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion, bell pepper (if using), and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  4. Increase heat to medium-high. Add the parboiled potatoes to the skillet. Spread evenly and cook without stirring for about 5 minutes to start crisping. Stir gently and cook another 5 minutes until golden on most sides.
  5. Break the canned corned beef into chunks and add to the skillet. Sprinkle smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir carefully, pressing the mixture down slightly for crispiness. Cook for 7-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until edges are crispy and browned.
  6. In a separate pan or clear space in the skillet, crack 4 large eggs. Fry to preference (sunny-side up recommended). Season with salt and pepper. Cook about 4-5 minutes.
  7. Spoon the crispy corned beef hash onto plates or serve from the skillet. Top each portion with a fried egg and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Notes

Dry potatoes thoroughly before cooking to ensure crispiness. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if needed. For runny yolks, fry eggs separately or steam on top of hash briefly. Season carefully as canned corned beef can be salty.
