Roast Beef Hash, Ornaments and a Christmas Meme!
in Meat on Thursday, December 13, 2012
I've been making this rather unusual hash for years. Any time we have leftover steak or roast beef, my family loves this dish. Simple to put together, comforting and you can use that tender beef in a casserole instead of sandwiches, or when everyone gets tired of sandwiches. We love the red wine in it and while it bakes, it gets a little crunchy on top. Give it a good stir and all that lovely gravy in the bottom will coat everything.
Haven't a clue where this recipe came from....could have been a friend or even in a magazine back in the 70's. If anyone knows, let me know. I wish I had been more thorough when I entered this kind of recipe in my MasterCook program years ago.
Roast Beef Hash
Ingredients:
4 cups diced roast beef
1/2 cup red wine
4 cups diced, cooked potatoes
4 tablespoons butter
4 Tablespoons chopped onions
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon savory
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
Paprika
Method:
Mix onion and garlic with herbs and saute in butter. Add potatoes and brown slighty. Add all other ingredients and pour into casserole. Bake 350 for 30 minutes.
Thought it might be fun to show you my newest ornaments and some decorations. I never can resist.....I am such a sucker for ornaments!
