Ingredients

  • 3-4 pounds corned beef brisket
  • 1 head cabbage, cut into wedges
  • 6 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 6 potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 onion, peeled and quartered
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Water, enough to cover the corned beef

Method

  1. 1

    In a large pot, place the corned beef brisket and add enough water to cover it.

  2. 2

    Add the minced garlic, black peppercorns, mustard seeds, and bay leaf to the pot.

  3. 3

    Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 2-3 hours, or until the corned beef is tender. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface during cooking.

  4. 4

    Once the corned beef is tender, remove it from the pot and set it aside to rest.

  5. 5

    In the same pot, add the cabbage wedges, carrots, potatoes, and onion.

  6. 6

    Continue simmering the vegetables for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are cooked to your desired tenderness.

  7. 7

    While the vegetables are cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  8. 8

    Transfer the cooked corned beef to a baking dish and brush it with a glaze made from a mixture of mustard, brown sugar, and honey. Place the corned beef in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the glaze has caramelized.

  9. 9

    Remove the Corned Beef with the cabbage, carrots, potatoes, and onion from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin slices.

  10. 10

    Serve and enjoy the sliced Corned Beef with Cabbage!
