2 cloves garlic, minced
2 bay leaves
1/2 tablespoon black peppercorns
6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut in quarters

5. Carve brisket against grain.
6. On a large platter, arrange corned beef slices in the middle and vegetables around the side. Garnish with watercress.

Helpful Hints:

Corned beef brisket sometimes comes with its own flavor packet in which case you should use that for the spices.

The watercress as a garnish is always a hit on St. Patrick's Day since it resembles shamrocks. In our family, the day is not complete without corned beef and cabbage, some soda bread & jam, and a little Irish coffee!
