Hash is a mixture of beef (often leftovers of corned beef or roast beef), onions, potatoes, and spices that are mashed together into a coarse, chunky paste and then cooked either alone, or with other ingredients.
In the United Kingdom it is eaten for lunch or dinner and, in certain parts, celebration of Ash Wednesday involves the ritual serving and eating of hash.
In Denmark, hash, known in Danish as "biksemad" (roughly translated, "tossed together food") is a traditional leftover dish, usually served with a fried egg, bearnaise sauce, pickled red beet slices and ketchup.
In Sweden there is a version of hash called pyttipanna, similar to the Danish version.
