Recipe by: The LL Bean Book of "New" New England Cookery *The chef's secret
for a good hash is to use the flesh of freshly baked potatoes. Heat enough
oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet, add the chopped onion, and cook
over low heat, stirring, until straw-colored. Mix the corned beef with the
potatoes and carrot, scrape the cooked onion into the mixture, stir in the
herbs, a light sprinkling of salt and pepper, and the corned beef cooking
broth. Turn the hash mixture into the skillet, but don't mash it down.
Cook over the lowest possible heat about 40 minutes. With a spatula, loosen
the hash around the edges. Make a deep crease across the hash at right
angles to the handle. Tip the skillet and fold this half of the hash over
its lower half. Loosen the bottom with the spatula to be sure it comes
free of the pan. Hold a hot platter over the pan, invert the skillet and
platter together. Let the hash drop out like an omelet - it should be well
browned and crusty on top. Typed by Diana Rattray
