Yield: 4 servings.
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)
3 cups cooked corned beef, sliced ½-inch thick and chopped into 1-inch pieces
2 cups Yukon Gold potatoes, boiled and chopped into 1-inch cubes
2 green onions, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
2 to 4 eggs, fried
Melt butter in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) on medium heat. Add yellow onion and cook for a few minutes, until translucent.
Add corned beef and potatoes to skillet and spread out evenly. Raise heat to medium-high or high and press down on the mixture with a metal spatula. To ensure a crispy crust, do not stir.
After 3 to 4 minutes, check the bottom of the hash. If nicely browned, use the spatula to flip sections over in the pan to brown on the other side. Press down firmly with the spatula. Continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes.
Remove from heat. Stir in green onions, and add salt and pepper to taste. Top with fried eggs and serve.

To commemorate our 90th anniversary, we’ve compiled a time line that highlights the stories, contributors, and themes that have shaped this magazine — and your view of the Old North State — using nine decades of our own words.
From its northernmost point in Corolla to its southern terminus on Cedar Island, this scenic byway — bound between sound and sea — links the islands and communities of the Outer Banks.
Us? An icon? Well, after 90 years and more than 2,000 issues celebrating North Carolina from mountains to coast, we hope you’ll agree that we’ve earned the title.
After nearly a century — or just a couple of years — these seafood restaurants have become coastal icons, the places we know, love, and return to again and again.
