I’m a nurse and I’ve had many ready or microwave meals from the M&S in our hospital, they do some good meals, and after a 12.5 hour shift I just cant be bothered to cook, also because we nurses finish at 19:30 they close at 20:00, very often the food is discounted to half price or below, absolute bargain. ❤
being that it's M&S you can guarantee the corned beef is british they would want full meat tracing, I worked for a company that made food for them they are very stringent in the quality of ingredients it's what you pay the extra for
Bear in mind that this corned beef hash is made by 2 Sisters, who in 2018 were found guilty of multiple offences concerning food hygiene and traceability.
@@steveaustin4118 Google "2 sisters food scandal". They were exposed by ITV and The Guardian in 2017 using undercover filming, and fined £1.4 million in 2018.
i worked with a guy who inspected M&S he said the ingredients are all the same source and mix, m&s have their own food plants to control quality and freshness, so it might be slightly better quality but just gone thru an extra process in a different building, i just concentrate on quality regardless of the brand... is obvious whats good and bad just dont buy what u know is bad and u'll be fine
You're looking good mate! I can't wait for the next one. Keep up the good fight. Try their Italian range, e.g. beef cannolloni, chicken arrabiatta. They are 3 for £9 so I'd love to hear a review.
M&S are never cheap unless you are very lucky to find them marked down but the quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten. Enjoy this one Gareth, nice and easy to eat.
You would lose the "crispy bits" if you put cheese on before the oven. I would put grated cheese on at the end then back in for 2/3 mins just to melt it.
I like the fact you take the trouble to reply! You are so polite. Wishing you and family well ❤ You've found your inner grit! Stay well and persevere. Family is all.
I love these corned beef hash from M&S. The only problem is they're rare in my local shop as they are a favourite of the local gang of grannies and you have to fight for them.
I made this last night! Not from a packet, but from the raw ingredients! The only difference was, I was using up the last of a piece of corned silverside (New Zealand's home-cook version of corned beef, that you boil for about 3 hours, in a mix of water, to which you add half a cup of malt vinegar and a tablespoon or two of golden syrup). It was delicious and there's enough for at least 3 more portions. I served mine with some broccoli, just for the added colour! I forgot to add the mustard, but it still tastes amazing. When I serve the freshly cooked corned beef it has a mustard sauce with it - the flavours are perfectly paired. If you ever get over here, do see whether you can find somewhere serving proper corned beef - when my brother visited from the UK he enjoyed it so much that we had to have it every 3rd day for the duration of his stay! (I was corned out by the end of a month!)
My dad used to make corned beef hash, for the family. Big pan (ten in the family) fill with sliced potatoes, carrots, onions and two tins of Fray Bentos corned beef, cook till potatoes are cooked, I personally put a couple of beef oxo’s in. Get a plate, put a slice of thick white bread on the bottom (Warburtons toastie bread in green pack) cover with hash, squirt brown sauce on, sadly I’m getting my body ready for the summer, so I will have to wait for the colder weather again. M&S food is the best, my go to shop. I don’t buy many pre-made foods, but the there, The Best Steak Pie, is one of my husbands favourites. You’re starting to get your spark back. One day at a time mate.
You can just cobble up your own version in a casserole dish - 1 large onion (sliced), tin of spuds, tin of carrots, small tin of processed peas, tin of corned beef, add a teaspoon of mustard & whatever seasoning you like - I use a bit of black pepper & mixed herbs. Great video once again.
That looked very tasty indeed Gareth. Whilst watching the crispy topping sizzling through the oven door, I've had to go & get one for my tea. I'm looking forward to it. All the best Gareth 👍 Thank you 😊
I have just checked the price elsewhere and it’s pretty competitive against other supermarkets. Because this is how I spend my Fridays nights, looking at and comparing prices of processed foods 🤣. Thanks for the review Gareth. Nice to see you on the mend 😀
When has M&S ever disappointed I see why it’s £3.50 it’s cuz every bit of that ready meal is M&S you can when at home use different brands But glad you enjoyed it Gaz Cheers ☕️
Had this about 5 weeks ago and I enjoyed it. £3.50 isn't that bad considering how much corned beef is in a tin. I live on my own now so by the time I buy stuff to make it, its worth it, oh I did add extra mature cheese to the topping.
Got to remember that Corned beef in a can is relatively expensive these days. Just over 10 years ago when I lived in Shetland, it was always on my weekly shopping list!! Those days it was 68p these days it's well over £2
My Nan used to make this for a big family I’m sure she used to call it “desperate Dan pie” because the dish was huge . Never tried it but my mum has brought it up a few times over the years
It’s funny you picked this, because I bought some cans of Libby’s corned beef hash and recently cooked it - and the preparation of this makes all the difference! If you can get it really crispy, it’s delicious and has a wonderful texture. Tricky cooking it but delicious when cooked crispy. And a red hot sauce, like a cayenne pepper sauce, can be useful. Cheers!
hey hope ur better.. im going to start my detox tomorrow, ive been trying to quit for years. you've been an inspiration to a lot of people. nobody has a clue about mental health, having also ''served'' i understand the ripping feeling you are left with. if you can do it so can i. thanks brother
Used to have the same ingredients in my favourite school dinner. But it had a pastry topping, with Baked beans & Peas inside added to the ingredients. It was a dinner that didn't arrive often enough..
To save a bit of money I would microwave that for the specified time. Then transfer it to a portion sized metal container and place under the grill for 3 to 4 minutes. So it’s fully cooked; with a nice crusty top; without the need to use soo much electricity. Serve in the metal container but be careful! You can’t really place those plastic trays under the grill as there decompose quite quickly.
My daughter had cornbeef pie and gravy . Pie and peas and dripping sandwiches at her wedding breakfast . She wanted the money we saved towards her house
Wow. You look really well, man. The first video i saw was your "Lose Everything" video, the second was the update from like 2 weeks later, & now this one. Physically, you look healthy. Like night & day different. I'm glad you're doing well & look forward to watching some uploads. Although I'm in Texas. & don't have mist of these food items, I'm glad I found your channel.
Only had Corned Beef Hash once, my mate made it. She put a load of potatoes in a pan, chopped onions, carrots, 2 tins of corned beef & 3 Oxo cubes. She boiled the pan for a while then served it up, big potatoes, carrots onions, corned beef & thin brown gravy. It was bloody awful. 1st & last time. Seeing that - I could have a go at making that - looks mighty fine. £3.50 for M&S food - it has to be done. M&S could sell tinned old socks & they'd taste bloody lovely. Shame they left Barrow. All the support they have had from this town over the years. Your looking much better. I notice your jaw was misaligned slightly after your accident. But you are looking a lot better. You've been very brave, courageous in fact talking about your life as you did. Raise my hat off to you. Look after yourself & your family.
@geminil2415 - I honestly thought it was a joke. We never had it growing up as my mam is Scottish, we had Stovies, quite similar but she used sausages. The whole corned beef thing I was curious. My friend made it for a New Years Eve party she was hosting. She left me in charge of serving it to people. All I could think was - these poor people are going to start the year eating something Oliver Twist wouldn't eat in the workhouse. I served each plate & said, 'Happy New Years & I'm sorry'.
Google Delia Smith version put in the oven if required I can't believe your mate got it so wrong what was her other cooking like.some put in a sprinkle of Worcestershire sauce.
Super fit ! It's my go to when ill. Comfort food for any one from up north! you can normally get 3 for a £10.......... It's to hot down here in London we need rain to eat this...... Mr G you do it again ! give me the blooming munchies
Corned beef used to be very cheap so hash was a staple when growing up.Not so much now but still a tasty.filling meal. You can make a much better and cheaper version yourself in no time at all. I live beside a Marks and Spencers Food store so drop in almost daily for the heavily reduced items-my freezer's always full of them but sometimes even the thrill of paying 5p for a £4.50 item can't make up for the taste.That's the case with their corned beef hash.
Yes I do enjoy a lot of food from Marks & Waitrose they are both really good quality. I'm Not kind of food snob or rich Its just where I live we only have a Marks & Spencer's food hall & Waitrose and a Sainsburys local & they all seem to be around the same price. The nearest ASDA or Lidl is at least half hour or more Drive away.
For three and a half quid, it's still cheaper than a sandwich and a bag of crisps for lunch, and probably better for you. I think it's one of those things you bung your own extras on to taste; a handful of peas and carrots, bit more cheese and squirt of tomketch or HP. 😋😋
Garlic! M&S seem to put garlic into just about every meal they sell??? Why would you want to eat a corned beef hash then go around smelling of second hand garlic (yuk)? It was certainly not in the menu, when corned beef hash was first popular.....so why spoil it? Glad you're looking better Gareth - your channel is first class!!!
Great to see you recovering well Gaz! I have a video suggestion thats suitable for your recovering jaw. Can you do a comparison on spaghetti bolognaise ready meals? Like Aldi, Tesco, Asda and M&S? 😊
Good to see you x You seem a lot like your old self now, must have been a bad few weeks for you, but you have pulled through x Bet this would make a nice pie filling or into pasties.
I have also had this and I found I needed to add something like brown sauce or Branston, but then I usually do that when I make my own. As for the portion size I find it just right now I'm a bit older, with a smaller appetite. Glad to see you out and about.
Well done Baldy my man for getting past 100k Subscribers. Silver CZcams plaque will be on your way soon. I did say you would get over 100k within the year and you will start get sponsors too hopefully. You should of planted your face a long time ago while on the lash to get this much attention haha. The big man our Lord must be looking out for you mate. All the best 🍀
Hi Gareth, It is so lovely to see you start to eat different types of food that most definitely says you are starting to go in the right direction on the mend 👍 thanks for sharing your review it looked so nice I am going to make some over the weekend all the best mate Lin 👍🙂
Nice to see you mention brown sauce with it my better half thinks I'm werid having brown sauce with it thanks mate keep up with how your going mate one day at a time day mate
Love a corned beef hash.. 😋 I usually get a tray of mash from tesco, corned beef from lidl, heat the mash in microwave, mash in the corned beef, add pepper, grill to crisp the top, add grated cheese and gravy.. Enjoy.. Cheap filling nosh on a cold night.
in the 60's my mum used to tell us not to mention we had corned beef for tea as it was seen as poor people's food lol. I really like corned beef but I wish there was a better way of opening the tin!
A lot of cheap or poor food is delicious. Price isn't really a factor in the quality of food IMO. Price is usually associated with how rare or how difficult a food is to catch,grow or breed, not for how tasty it is. For example Cod is now looked upon as a great tasting fish, yet it only became popular in chippy's because the fish was so plentiful and thus cheap. No matter how much pretentious food snobs might protest, stuff like caviar and truffles aren't some other worldy taste sensation sent from the gods, they are merely difficult or expensive to cultivate. If chips could only be obtained in a 2 week window by a deep sea diver at the bottom of the caspian sea and dependant on wether blue whales are mating on a full moon, I'm sure there'd be hordes of pretentious food snobs paying £1,000's for them. *Sorry, I think i just had an 'episode'.🤦♂🤦♂
Oh yeah! That's just what I need, some tasty ready made meals like this to save me cooking all the time.. I love that nice little oven you got there too, it's great. Thanks for the review.
I used to love a good Hash-up. Especially when on exercise. Easy to make, even on a hexi burner. I haven't had for quite a while now. The last one I had was from the Co-Op and it was really foul. Another great review 👍👍.
I’m going to try that as I love M & S food but only occasionally. Not sure you can make it cheaper as a tin of corned beef now is expensive. When I was a child (along time ago !), corned beef hash was a cheap and cheerful meal but not now,
So glad to see you're on the mend, Gareth🥰 We tried that; got a pack each, and had it with peas and sweetcorn for an easy tea, after a busy day, and enjoyed it, but we both thought it could 've done with a bit more seasoning🤔 Take care and all the best🥰
Yum...Have to make mine and use plant based cathedral cheese (which for an alternative cheese is the closest I have found yet)...one of my favourites. Glad you enjoyed and all the best.
Iv always made corned beef Ash like a stew.. boiled potatoes carrots onion in a pan of hot water.. then added corned beef then the gravy.. then spoon it over yorkshire puddings.. I'm West yorkshire & was taught this way from been a kid..
Afternoon! Nicer to see you looking so chipper. I love corned beef hash. That's a bit pricey for me so I'll stick to homemade with beetroot on the side. Ta Gareth, keep well!
A lot of their ready meals are made near me in Merthyr Tydfil. The company who makes them supply other supermarket chains, same meal, different wrapping, different prices
Oww yeh gota luv a corned beef hash😋Gaz just want to say a huge congratulations on reaching over 100k followers on the cards i think & well deserved for producing a great channel with great content the best on CZcams by far in my opinion just SPOT on thanks Gaz keep up the good work👍
Looks good enough for the price. After all corned beef these days cost more than £2-00 a tin. And I hope that you finished it off with a bit of bread and butter?.
Good review as usual Gareth. Funny enough I popped into Markies the other day for a few things and had one of those yesterday for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it

You’re welcome 😊 thank you Nicola

I know people think M&S is expensive, but it’s only a little more, but well worth it.❤️👍😀
It's 3 or 4 times as much as other cheaper stores, a little!.

Beetroot on the side, goes great with it.
Crispy fried egg on top.

I did say you would get over 100k within the year and you will start get sponsors too hopefully. You should of planted your face a long time ago while on the lash to get this much attention haha. The big man our Lord must be looking out for you mate. All the best 🍀

Hi Gareth, It is so lovely to see you start to eat different types of food that most definitely says you are starting to go in the right direction on the mend 👍 thanks for sharing your review it looked so nice I am going to make some over the weekend all the best mate Lin 👍🙂

No problem 👍
I love cornedbeef hash lovely .
Love corned beef hash with cabbage.great see you on soliides.👍
You really can't go wrong with any m s products 👍👍
Love a corned beef hash.. 😋 I usually get a tray of mash from tesco, corned beef from lidl, heat the mash in microwave, mash in the corned beef, add pepper, grill to crisp the top, add grated cheese and gravy.. Enjoy.. Cheap filling nosh on a cold night.
in the 60's my mum used to tell us not to mention we had corned beef for tea as it was seen as poor people's food lol. I really like corned beef but I wish there was a better way of opening the tin!
Yes was used alot during the war
A lot of cheap or poor food is delicious.
Price isn't really a factor in the quality of food IMO.
Price is usually associated with how rare or how difficult a food is to catch,grow or breed, not for how tasty it is.
For example Cod is now looked upon as a great tasting fish, yet it only became popular in chippy's because the fish was so plentiful and thus cheap.
No matter how much pretentious food snobs might protest, stuff like caviar and truffles aren't some other worldy taste sensation sent from the gods, they are merely difficult or expensive to cultivate.
If chips could only be obtained in a 2 week window by a deep sea diver at the bottom of the caspian sea and dependant on wether blue whales are mating on a full moon, I'm sure there'd be hordes of pretentious food snobs paying £1,000's for them.
*Sorry, I think i just had an 'episode'.🤦♂🤦♂
so do i sometimes the key snaps off and then its not easy trying to use a tinopener around corners
it did say to stir before serving, so if it's a tad dry, mebbe it's because you didn't stir it in the dish before you plated it.
Don't think that made a difference as you eat it all together.
Am rather hungry ...it's only 9.30am Sunday morning ... Think trip to Marks later🤩
Oh yeah! That's just what I need, some tasty ready made meals like this to save me cooking all the time.. I love that nice little oven you got there too, it's great. Thanks for the review.
You're welcome 😊
I used to love a good Hash-up. Especially when on exercise. Easy to make, even on a hexi burner.
I haven't had for quite a while now. The last one I had was from the Co-Op and it was really foul.
Another great review 👍👍.
Good to see you got something you like instead of Fray Bentos gloop lol
Great to you that the jaws mending by god you looked like you were enjoying that corn beef hash. Thanks for the review❤
Yes it's getting better
Corned Beef is bloody expensive these days! When I make mine it's more in the cottage pie style.
you are looking well Gareth! thanks for the uploads!
My pleasure!
I’m going to try that as I love M & S food but only occasionally. Not sure you can make it cheaper as a tin of corned beef now is expensive. When I was a child (along time ago !), corned beef hash was a cheap and cheerful meal but not now,
Try Aldi own brand. Couple of quid
That looks delicious! I wonder if it is more expensive because it features British beef.
Oh I do love corn beef hash 😊💯
So glad to see you're on the mend, Gareth🥰 We tried that; got a pack each, and had it with peas and sweetcorn for an easy tea, after a busy day, and enjoyed it, but we both thought it could 've done with a bit more seasoning🤔 Take care and all the best🥰
Cheers Patrick 👍
I like beetroot on the side, goes great with it.
Reminded me of Jerry singing Corned Beef Hash of Phoenix Nights 😂
"With chips or with salad"
😂😂👍
Yum...Have to make mine and use plant based cathedral cheese (which for an alternative cheese is the closest I have found yet)...one of my favourites. Glad you enjoyed and all the best.
Cheers Adz, yes tasty mate
Iv always made corned beef Ash like a stew.. boiled potatoes carrots onion in a pan of hot water.. then added corned beef then the gravy.. then spoon it over yorkshire puddings.. I'm West yorkshire & was taught this way from been a kid..
Afternoon! Nicer to see you looking so chipper. I love corned beef hash. That's a bit pricey for me so I'll stick to homemade with beetroot on the side. Ta Gareth, keep well!
You're welcome 😊
A lot of their ready meals are made near me in Merthyr Tydfil. The company who makes them supply other supermarket chains, same meal, different wrapping, different prices
That looks quite tasty. Might have to get myself one from M&S 😊nice to see you're recovering
Great review thanks for sharing.
Cheers pal 👍
m&s different class looks great
now then, I really do like the look of this, thanks for reviewing 👍have a nice weekend x
You’re welcome 😊
Everyones favourite comfort food 👍
You're looking well, hope the weekends aren't too tough for you, they will get easier I promise 👍

Oww yeh gota luv a corned beef hash😋Gaz just want to say a huge congratulations on reaching over 100k followers on the cards i think & well deserved for producing a great channel with great content the best on CZcams by far in my opinion just SPOT on thanks Gaz keep up the good work👍
Thanks so much
Looks delicious 😋 Love M&S food. Especially at Christmas ❤
Making my mouth water even if a bit expensive lol
Looks good enough for the price. After all corned beef these days cost more than £2-00 a tin. And I hope that you finished it off with a bit of bread and butter?.
Good review as usual Gareth. Funny enough I popped into Markies the other day for a few things and had one of those yesterday for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it
Thanks 👍
