Servings: persons

4 -5 lbs corned beef (preferably the top rib, but silverside is good, too)
2 onions, peeled but left whole
6 cloves
2 bay leaves
8 black peppercorns
3 large carrots, peeled and cut into 3 pieces each
4 -6 potatoes, peeled and halved (evenly sized floury about 4oz each)
1 medium green cabbage
salt & freshly ground black pepper
hot mustard, to serve (optional)

1
Rinse the beef under cold water to remove the brine and put it into a large but snugly fitting pan that is also large enough to hold all the vegetables.
2
Stud the onions with the cloves and add them to the pan with the bay leaves, peppercorns and enough water to cover.
3
Bring to the boil over a high heat, skimming off any scum as it rises to the surface. Then reduce the heat, cover and leave to simmer for 2-21/2 hours, until the beef is tender, skimming the surface and topping up the water now and then if necessary.
4
Add the carrots and bring back to the boil.
5
Then add the potatoes and simmer for 15 minutes.
6
Meanwhile, wash the cabbage, cut it into 6 or 8 wedges and remove the thickest part of the core, but leave a little to help hold the leaves together.
7
Add to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes, by which time all the vegetables should be tender.
8
Lift the beef on to a carving board and carve the meat across the grain into slices. Arrange the beef and vegetables on a large, warmed serving platter and moisten with a little of the stock.
9
Serve with some hot mustard, if you wish.
