Ingredients
- 2
- medium baking potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 5
- eggs, divided
- 2.5 oz
- corned beef, finely chopped
- 75 g
- 2
- green onions, finely chopped
- salt and white pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup
- breadcrumbs
- 75 mL
- 2 tbsp
- vegetable oil
- 30 mL
Method
- Step 1
- Boil potatoes in lightly salted water until tender. Drain well, mash, and transfer to a bowl to cool to room temperature. Fork-beat 1 egg and mix into potatoes, along with corned beef, green onion, salt and pepper.
- Step 2
- Spread breadcrumbs onto a wide plate. Dip hands in cold water and shape potato mixture into four 1-in./2.5-cm thick hash cakes. Place on breadcrumbs, turn to coat and gently press crumbs onto hash cakes to stick. Set aside.
- Step 3
- In saucepan, bring water to a simmer to poach remaining eggs. Meanwhile, heat the oil in large non-stick skillet on medium heat. Cook hash cakes 3 to 4 min. per side, or until golden and heated through. As hash cakes finish cooking, poach eggs in the simmering water 3 to 4 min., or to desired doneness.
- Step 4
- Plate hash cakes; top each with a poached egg to serve.
