  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat (350°F).
  2. Add 1 cup diced potatoes, spreading them in an even layer. Cook for 5 minutes without stirring to allow them to brown.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup diced onion and 1/4 cup diced bell pepper. Cook for another 3 minutes until vegetables soften.
  4. Add 1 cup diced corned beef, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Mix well and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Create 4 wells in the hash and crack 1 large egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, or until eggs reach desired doneness.
  6. Drizzle 1 tbsp vegetable oil around the edges of the skillet for extra crispiness, if desired.

Crispy potatoes, tender corned beef, and runny yolks make every bite a delight. Serve it straight from the skillet with a side of toast for scooping up the goodness.
