1. Corned beef curry
Ingredients
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil or olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped
1 potato or small turnip, diced
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 piece of fresh ginger, grated

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a low heat. Cover with a piece of parchment paper and the pan lid and gently sweat the onions, carrots, and potato in the hot oil for 5 minutes.

2. Corned beef hash
Ingredients
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
226g of cooked corned beef, diced
1 white onion, finely chopped
1 bell pepper, finely chopped
2 medium baking potatoes, peeled and shredded
4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 slices of cheddar cheese
Instructions
Heat the oil in a medium skillet over high heat. Add the corned beef and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it releases some fat and browns slightly, about 3 minutes. Stir in the onion, bell pepper and potatoes and cook, undisturbed, until brown and crisp on the bottom, about 6 minutes. Continue cooking, turning the hash as it browns evenly, about 15 more minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the eggs sunny-side up or over easy; season with salt and pepper.
Place the cheese slices on top of the hash, reduce the heat and let sit until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. To serve, top each portion of hash with a fried egg.

4. Corned beef stir fry
Ingredients
1 cup of beef stock
2 tablespoons of rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 teaspoons of soy sauce
2 teaspoons of chili garlic sauce
1 teaspoon of cornstarch
450g of corned beef, cubed
2 tablespoons of neutral oil
2 packages of frozen stir-fry vegetables
Rice, for serving
Fresh cilantro, garnish
Chili garlic sauce, garnish
Instructions
For sauce, whisk together beef stock, rice wine vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce and cornstarch. Set aside.
Cut corned beef into 1/4-inch cubes. In a large skillet or wok, add a drizzle of oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add corned beef and cook until crispy on the edges, 4-5 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook according to package directions. Since veggies will cook more in the stir-fry, use the lowest guideline for microwaving time. If the package has a sauce included, rinse the sauce off in a colander after cooking.
Toss thawed veggies into the skillet or wok with the corn beef and toss to combine. Cook until heated through.
Pour stir-fry sauce in and let reduce for 2-3 minutes.
Serve stir-fry immediately over rice with fresh cilantro and extra chili garlic sauce.
