Method

  1. Parboil the potatoes.

    Bring a pot of salted water to the boil, add the diced potatoes and parboil for 6 to 7 minutes until just tender but not falling apart.

    Drain well and let them steam-dry for a minute, wet potatoes won't crisp in the pan.

  2. Start the hash.

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until softened.

    Add the parboiled potatoes and spread them into a single layer. Leave them undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes to build a crust before stirring, this is what gets the crisp edges rather than a soft mash.

  3. Add the corned beef.

    Break the corned beef into rough chunks and add it to the pan along with the Worcestershire sauce if using. Stir gently to combine without mashing the beef too fine.

  4. Crisp and serve.

    Press the mixture back into an even layer and cook for a further 5 to 6 minutes, undisturbed, until the underside is deeply golden and crisp.

    Season with salt and pepper, scatter with parsley if using, and serve straight from the pan.
