For the potatoes
-
4 baking potatoes
-
1 tsp olive oil
-
Salt
For the ragu
-
1 tbsp olive oil
-
1 small onion, peeled and chopped
-
2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
-
1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced
-
1/2 tsp dried chillis (optional)
-
1 x 400g can chopped tomatoes
-
340g tin corned beef, diced
-
Wash the potatoes and prick them four or five times with a fork. Pour a little oil into the centre of a square of foil, roll the potato in it, sprinkle on some salt then wrap the potato in the foil.
-
Place the potatoes in the slow cooker and cook for 4-5 hours on high, or 8-10 hours on low.
-
The flesh will be slightly darker than oven, or microwave cooked potatoes.
-
Pour the olive oil into a large frying pan, add the onion and garlic and fry for a few minutes until they start to turn golden. Season with pepper and salt and fry until soft. Add the canned tomatoes, the chilli and cook for about 5 minutes.
-
Once the sauce has thickened, add in the corned beef, stir and cook for another few minutes until you have a rich, thick ragu.
