Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 500 grams fresh green beans
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup French fried onions
Supporting Ingredients:
- ½ cup milk
Seasoning:
- Black pepper to taste
- Salt to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Wash 500 grams of green beans, trim the ends, and slice into 2-inch segments. Submerge in boiling water for precisely 5 minutes, then quickly drain in a colander.
- Grab a large mixing bowl and whisk together one 300-gram can of cream of mushroom soup with ½ cup milk until completely smooth. Season generously with black pepper.
- Pour the blanched green beans into the creamy mixture, stirring carefully to ensure every bean gets thoroughly coated with sauce. Transfer everything into a clean baking dish.
- Evenly distribute 1 cup of French fried onions across the top of your casserole, creating a crispy golden layer that will add crunch and flavor.
- Slide the baking dish into a preheated oven set exactly at 350F. Bake for 25-30 minutes, watching for a bubbling sauce and beautifully golden-brown onion topping.
Notes
- Blanch green beans quickly to maintain their bright color and crisp texture, ensuring they don’t become mushy.
- Use fresh green beans when possible for the best flavor and texture, but frozen beans work well in a pinch.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute cream of mushroom soup with a homemade version and use gluten-free fried onions.
- To add extra flavor, consider mixing in some sautéed fresh mushrooms or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese before baking.
