Not only is Mr a very good cook, but he is also Irish and so makes me yummy Irish food like colcannon. In an effort to show him some good hearty English food, I cooked him my favourite – corned beef hash. Looking at the wiki, it seems the way my family always has it is a little different to how it is supposed to be – we boil potatoes with some onions, then mash it with tinned corned beef, and then top with baked beans and cheese. Not the healthiest thing in the world but it sure is yummy.
The German version of this is called labskaus, with mashed potatoes, corned beef and then pickled fish and beetroot on the side. I’m hoping to make this soon, so I can compare and contrast!
