Corned Beef with Beer
Traditional boiled corned beef with just a touch of beer in the cooking water. I serve with mashed potatoes, boiled cabbage and peas or carrots. This is also great cold on sandwiches with pickles and cheese.
Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 2-2.5kg piece silverside (corned beef)
- 1 carrot
- 1 onion
- 2 Tbsp golden syrup
- 2-3 bayleaves
- 12 whole black peppercorns
- 1 x 375ml can beer

- Wash the meat in cold water, it makes it less slippery.
- Put the silverside into a deep saucepan along with peeled and roughly chopped carrot and onion.
- Add golden syrup, peppercorns, bay leaves and the beer.
- Top up with cold water, (up to top of meat), bring to boil and simmer for about 2-2.5hrs.
- Remember to check the level of water from time to time and top up if required.
- Remove silverside from cooking liquid and leave to cool/set for 15 minutes. If you try to carve too early it may shred. Discard cooking water.
