Making Hawaiian Corned Beef Hash Patties With KC

Whenever, we go to visit my daughter and her family, my granddaughter, KC always asks for the Hawaiian style corned beef hash patties.

Since KC went to Cooking Camp this summer, she really wanted to help me make this dish. It was my mother who used to make this for us when we were little. This was before frying things was discovered to be so unhealthy.

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:

4 large potatoes

1 can corned beef

1 medium sized onion

3 eggs (beaten)

flour

corn flake crumbs (I've used bread crumbs when I was desperate.)

Instructions:

Boil potatoes until tender and mash.

Saute diced onions in butter until tender. 

Combine mashed potatoes and sauteed onions with 1 can of corned beef.

Form patties about 3 inches in diameter.

Coat each patty with flour.

Dip the floured patties in the beaten eggs.

Coat them with the corn flake crumbs. 

Fry the patties until golden brown.

Just for fun I looked up Hawaiian Corned Beef Hash Patties and found this recipe.

Interesting....

They add the egg to the mashed potatoes, round onions, green onions and corned beef and then coat the patties only in flour.

I'm going to have to try this for KC someday. For one thing, it sounds easier. And I can have KC cut the onions using her goggles again.
