Corned Meat ( Silverside or Beef)

Ingredients

• 1 kg corned beef (or use corned silverside)
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 2 onions, chopped
• 1/4 cup vinegar (I use malt vinegar)
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon peppercorn

Directions

1. 1

   Take the meat from the bag and place in a large saucepan or boiler.

2. 2

   Cover with water and add all of the ingredients.

3. 3

   Bring to the boil and reduce to a gentle heat to keep the water on a gentle boil. Cover the saucepan.

4. 4

   Slowly boil until cooked. 30 minutes for each 500 grams of meat.

5. 5

   Remove the meat form the water when cooked and wrap in aluminium foil (you can line the foil with baking paper if desired.).

6. 6

   You can slice the meat after about 10 minutes. The meat slices better the longer it is left. The meat can be sliced into thin sandwich slices when cold.

7. 7

   To reheat meat either use the microwave or heat in the foil in the oven until warmed thru.

8. 8

   NOTE: The vegetables cooked in the water are used for flavouring only and are discarded after the meat has cooked.

9. 9

   The number of servings and cooking time depends on the size of the piece of meat.
