Description

A classic and hearty Corned Beef Hash Breakfast featuring crispy corned beef hash topped with perfectly poached eggs, making a satisfying and flavorful morning meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can corned beef hash (approximately 15 ounces)
  • 3 tablespoons water, plus more if needed
  • 4 eggs


Instructions

  1. Heat the skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 can of corned beef hash and spread it evenly into a layer about ½ inch thick. Let it cook uncovered and undisturbed for approximately 10 minutes until the bottom becomes crispy.
  2. Create wells for eggs: Push one edge of the corned beef hash in slightly to create space for the water. Then make 4 small wells in the hash, just deep enough to hold the eggs without them running everywhere.
  3. Crack eggs and add water: Crack one egg into each of the wells. Add 3 tablespoons of water to the cleared edge of the pan to help with poaching.
  4. Poach the eggs: Cover the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Poach the eggs for about 2 minutes, then check if more water is needed. If so, add an additional tablespoon of water and continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs reach your desired yolk consistency (about 3 minutes total for runny yolks, 4 minutes for firmer yolks).
  5. Serve immediately: Once eggs are cooked to preference, serve the corned beef hash and poached eggs hot for a delicious breakfast.

Notes

  • If you prefer scrambled or fried eggs instead of poached, feel free to cook them separately and serve on top of the hash.
  • For extra flavor, you can sauté diced onions or bell peppers in the skillet before adding the corned beef hash.
  • If the hash sticks to the pan, use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease it before cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of water when poaching eggs to prevent burning and ensure proper steam.
  • Serve with hot sauce or ketchup for added taste if desired.
