Chef John's Diner-Style Corned Beef Hash
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 1/2 pounds cooked corned beef, finely chopped
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 cup roasted tomato salsa
Instructions
1
Begin by submerging potatoes in a large container and covering them with salted water; heat the mixture until it reaches a rolling boil.
2
Adjust the heat to a lower setting and let the potatoes simmer for approximately 15 minutes, or until they are almost tender but still retain some firmness.
3
Remove the potatoes from the water and chop them into smaller pieces using a knife or chopping tool.
4
Heat a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the beef until the fat starts to melt, creating a savory aroma.
5
Add green onions, salt, and pepper into the beef mixture to enhance its flavor. Introduce garlic and butter into the skillet, stirring constantly until the butter has melted and the garlic is fragrant.
6
Combine the chopped potatoes, salsa, and a pinch of salt into the beef mixture to create a harmonious blend.
7
Press the mixture down in the skillet with a spatula, dividing it into four equal parts to form individual sections.
8
Cook the hash without stirring until a crust forms on the bottom, taking around 5 minutes.
9
Flip each section and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until a crust forms on the bottom. Repeat this process, flipping every 5 minutes, until the hash remains cohesive and develops a golden crust, taking around 10 to 15 minutes.
