So long as you’ve got your potatoes already mashed, this recipe is a one-dish wonder, perfect for camping trips or cooking over a primus stove. For true authenticity, serve on plastic plates with ketchup and, if at all possible, huddled under canvas in the rain.
1 x 340g tin of corned beef, broken up into pieces
about 700g potatoes (and butter and milk to mash)
2 small onions
50g butter
1 small tin chopped tomatoes
1. Sauté the onions in half the fat in the frying pan until soft.
2. Boil and mash the potatoes.
3. Add the remaining fat to the frying pan, then the mashed potato, corned beef and tomatoes. Do not use all the tomatoes if the mixture seems too liquid. Fry all this together. Season well and serve hot. 4 fried eggs could be added on top.
