Ingredients

340 g Corned beef 1 tin of corned beef is usually 340g
600 g Potatoes
1 Cabbage
3 Carrots
2 Celery sticks
250 ml Water 1 to 1½ cups, or use stock.
½ teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

Preparation of ingredients

Prepare the vegetables:
Peel the potatoes and cut them into ½-inch cubes.
Peel the carrots and slice them into ¼-inch sections.
Slice the celery into ½ inch sections.
Slice the celery into 1 inch sections.

Loading up the slow cooker

Prepare the slow cooker by spraying the bottom of it with a few squirts of olive oil cooking spray or rubbing around with some butter.
Load the slow cooker by placing the potato in the bottom of the pot with carrots and celery.
Place corned beef on the vegetables. Break it all up with a spatula or wooden spoon. If it doesn't fit comfortably in your slow cooker, cut it into 2 or 3 pieces. Slice the cabbage into 8 wedges. Place the wedges with the meat and then add the water (or stock). Season with the black pepper and give everything a stir.

Cooking the corned beef hash

Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the Corned Beef and Cabbage on the low setting for 6 to 8 hours, or until the corned beef and vegetables are fork tender.
Stir half way through cooking (around 3 hours in) just to make sure everything is mixed together nicely.

Notes

Using corned beef from a tin is the original recipe but you can always use other cheaper cuts of beef. To use braising steak or diced beef then I recommend that you brown off the meat first. This will mean your dish ends up more like a regular beef stew but it will certainly still be very tasty.

Timings for slow cooking food can vary between slow cookers. Check on the contents after a few hours and give them a stir.
