Corned Beef Hash With Fried Or Poached Egg - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 large potatoes, cooked and cubed
    1 large onion, chopped
    2 garlic cloves, minced (optional)
    1 red pepper, cubed
    1 green pepper, cubed
    1 (12 ounce) can corned beef, cubed
    4 eggs, fried sunny-side-up (poached is also good)
Preparation
    Heat the butter and olive oil (or just one kind of fat) over medium-high heat in a large cast-iron or heavy-bottomed skillet.
    Add potatoes and allow to get golden and crusty on one side (about 2-3 minutes). Gently turn over with a spatula and do this a couple more times to get a golden crust all over.
    Add onion and garlic and saute with potatoes for 4-5 minutes; then add peppers, sauteeing a couple of minutes more.
    Finally, add corned beef and cook for 8-10 minutes, always flipping hash over every couple of minutes to ensure a crust develops on all sides. This should take about 20 minutes in all. Adjust seasoning - it won't need too much salt because of the corned beef, but LOTS of freshly ground black pepper is a GOOD thing.
    You can prepare the eggs in another pan during these steps.
    Distribute hash mixture amongst 4 plates and top each serving with a fried or poached egg.
    Season with Hot Sauce at table, to taste.
    Enjoy!
