Preparation

Remove the corned beef from its packaging and keep the spice packet. Put the beef and spices in a large pot. Add water until the meat is just covered. Peel, halve and add the onion.
Bring to a boil over high heat. As soon as it boils, reduce the heat until the liquid only gently bubbles. Cover and cook for 1 hour 30 minutes.
Wash the potatoes. Peel the carrots and cut them into thick pieces. Add both to the pot and continue cooking gently for 20 minutes.
Cut the cabbage into four wedges, leaving enough core on each wedge to hold the leaves together. Put the cabbage into the pot and cook for another 15 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
Remove the corned beef and rest it for at least 3 minutes. A thermometer in the thickest part must read at least 63 C / 145 F. Slice thinly across the grain, serve with the vegetables and spoon over some cooking liquid.
