Boil and mash potatoes. Fry onion. Add onion and corned beef to potatoes, with lots of brown sauce and stir till the corned beef has melted. Serve with potato scones or plain bread.

Red beans and rice is considerably more expensive than that but only by virtue of khao tom being so incredibly cheap -- rb&r is still probably, what, fifty or sixty cents a serving, and much less than that when I lived in New Orleans.

it's my favorite quick lunch, and when you break down the cost of ingredients per serving, pretty cheap.
other than that, rice with whatever is hanging around in the fridge will work in a pinch.

Someone else can have my share of that one. I'll take the baked potato with butter and salt. And, at the risk of seeming like a cultural stereotype, I loved a bit of refried cabbage with ketchup on it. Yum.

There has since been other kimchee, but never quite as good....
