Hadn’t had corned meat in a while. It was good to try again for something different. Used what herbs and veggies I had. Frozen some slices to add to salad sandwiches for following week’s lunches.
Corn beef & veggies
2 kg corn meat
2-3 sprigs rosemary
2 tbsp Vegeta seasoning
1/2 cup (125mL) white vinegar
1 tbsp brown sugar
Vegetables: potatoes, cabbage, carrots, pumpkin
1. Cover corn beef in water in big saucepan.
2. Add vinegar, brown sugar, herbs, seasoning. Bring to boil.
3. Simmer for 1 hour 20min
4. Carefully add chopped veggies.
5. Put lid on and simmer further 40-min.
6. Check potatoes with skewer before they break up at 30min. Scoop out soft veggies.
7. Rest corn beef 15-20min. Slice against grain.
Notes/Options
Rinse or not to rinse corned beef before cooking - removes excess salt - your choice. It’s recommended but sometimes I forget. This one was salty. Will rinse next time.
Cooking time appx 30min per 500g.
Vegetables eg., onion, carrots, celery sticks etc.,
