Corned beef/silverside<br />

isn’t everyone’s cup<br />

of tea and it’s often<br />

a textural thing. But<br />

leftover corned beef<br />

makes for an amazing<br />

fry-up the next day,<br />

which crisps it up nicely.<br />

In fact, forget leftovers,<br />

Directions<br />

Boil potatoes for 25-30min or<br />
