Ingredients




1 supermarket bundle of fresh Italian kale, stems removed and rough chopped
1 T. unsalted butter
salt & pepper
5 t. oil, divided
1 small onion, chopped fine
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 1/2 t. minced fresh thyme
3 c. leftover cooked potatoes, cubed (I used red potatoes)
2 c. chopped, leftover corned beef
1/3 c. heavy cream
4 eggs, poached or fried

Preparation

1 Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the kale and a pinch of salt and cook, covered, until wilted down, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside. 2 Wipe out the skillet, increase the heat to medium-high. Add 2 t. oil to the pan, add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally until softened and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant about a minute. Add the onion mixture to the plate with the kale. 3 Add the remaining oil to the skillet. When the oil is shimmering, add the potatoes. Season with salt & pepper. Cook, with out stirring, until the potatoes are golden-brown on the underside, about 5 minutes. Stir in the corned beef and the cooked onions and kale. Using the back of a spatula press down on the hash to compact it, drizzle the cream evenly over the hash and cook, undisturbed for 5 minutes. Turn the hash (a spatula full at a time) and press down again and cook for another 5 minutes, undisturbed. Repeat this one more time. Hash should be pretty well browned at this point. Serve hash topped with eggs.
