Directions:
Fill a LARGE pot with cold water halfway up.
Rinse the corned beef and add to the pot with
the packets of seasoning that comes with the corned beef.

Bring to a boil and then simmer immediately and cover.
Make sure water is bubbling softly.
Simmer for 6-7 hours.
In the last hour of cooking, add the cabbage cut in
big chunks, the carrots peeled and whole, the leeks
trimmed and large pieces, and the potatoes peeled and
whole. Keep an eye on potatoes so they do not overcook
and fall apart.

Remove corned beef to a cutting board and skim the
fat off the top with a knife. Slice the beef against the
grain.
Place meat on an oval platter, add the vegetables around it and drizzle
with olive oil. Serve horseradish and mustard on the side.
