Hi Chris: Thank you so very much for this recipe, I just bought a can of the same brand of corn beef that you showed, for Argentina. It is very hard to find it in California where I live. I will certainly make your version. In ANU, my mother used to add tomatoe paste and fresh tomatoes. Your recipe sounds like the Irish way. I look forward to making your recipe. Thanks Chris, I really enjoy your Website.

Thanks again, and again. /jjs

Thank you, that’s what I’ll make for dinner tomorrow.

Excellent recipe, and not just for Bachelors either. Difficult to get good tinned Corned Beef in Crete – none of the South American to be had, all from France (!) – but this has done the trick. I'll be trawling through the other recipes with enthusiasm.

Tomatoes can be used along with the ingredients in your recipe. I started using cabbage some years ago, on trial, to help to dilute the salt taste, as some brands of corned beef has more salt than others. Highly appreciate what you are doing, please continue.

My dad used to cook this when we were kids – hated it as much as I hated pilchards in tomato sauce fried up with onions and fresh tomatoes. It's funny how as children we hated certain dishes that we would not be without now. In particular salt fish, pig tail, chicken foot and souse – couldn't be without them now. Thanks for keeping these great recipes alive!

Thanks for posting this recipe! Unfortunately, there seems to be a corned beef shortage in the DC/MD area, as I along with some other moms have been shopping in all markets and grocery stores for it, and to no avail!! We have no idea what's happened, but I'll keep this recipe though, as some may turn up soon!

And thank you for the recipe for callaloo! My husband loves it!

I remember coming home to this recipe when I was a kid, my mom used to make it almost exactly like this, I think she added tabasco instead of the pepper you mentioned. She also would cook sweet onions till almost black to serve with it. Thanks for adding this recipe, I too had forgotten about it. .-= Aircda´s last blog ..Automatic Pasta Maker =-.

Hi Chris,

Thanks much for this recipe. I learned to cook it differently though; it is as follows:

You’ll need 2 tablespoon oil, 1 medium onion, a half cup of cellery, 3 cloves of onion minced, 1/4 cup of water and 1 seasoned onion chopped. Let vegetables cook in oil until onion becomes translucent, then add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste – cook for 1 minute stirring frequently – then add 1/4 cup of water and let this cook until the sauce becomes a bit thick – then add your corned beef and stir well. If necessary you may add a bit more water until everything comes together nicely to your likeness.
