Amazingly, I was the worst Irish girl...I never even ate corned beef until I met my husband. He taught me how to make this delicious meal, and like a good lass, I perfected it.
What you'll need:
1-2 Corned Beef briskets (if you cook 2, cook them in separate pots)
1 head of green cabbage
5 nice big carrots
3 parsnips
10 red potatoes
Fill a soup pot with water, add the meat and the spice pack that comes with the beef. Boil on medium for about 5 hours. The meat will be easily torn with a fork when ready. Cube the potatoes and slice the parsnips and carrots. The cabbage cut in half length wise, then cut the 2 halves length wise again in 1-2 inch strips. Discard the bottom know of the cabbage. Put all the veggies in a pot, boil for about 35 min. Remove meat and slice in healthy pieces. Drain the stock, scoop the veggies out. Place the meat and veggies on a large platter with the meat in the center. Serve with Irish soda bread. **Real soda bread is made with currants, not raisins**
