Check out the recipe on how to make corned beef.

Ingredients

2	Potatoes, medium size, scrubbed
1 ½ cups	Corned beef, cooked and diced (Main)
2	Spring onions, finely chopped
¼ cup	Parsley, chopped
50 g	Butter, softened

Boil the potatoes in their skins until just tender, about 25-30 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, peel and discard skins. Grate potato flesh using the coarse side of your grater.
Place in a bowl with the corned beef, spring onion, parsley and half the butter. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Shape mixture into 8 even-sized cakes. Press down to flatten a little.
Melt the remaining butter in a large non-stick frying pan, place in the potato cakes and cook on both sides, turning once, until golden and hot in the centre.
Serve with your favourite chutney and a salad or place a poached egg or two on top of each serving.
