This is another holiday staple at my house. I have had it every way known, and it seems to have become an American holiday staple, but I still like it this way best. I think the frozen green beans is the closest to summer as you can get in the middle of winter. Canned just does not cut it.

Provided by Anna Glover

Categories     Side dish

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 6 as a side

Number Of Ingredients 7

50g butter
2 tbsp olive oil
250g chestnut or button mushrooms, sliced
500g green beans, trimmed
50g flour
500ml milk
100g crispy onions

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tbsp of the butter and the oil in a large pan and fry the mushrooms for 10-15 mins until golden. Stir in the green beans and cook for another 3-4 mins until the beans turn bright green. Scoop out the veg onto a plate.
  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Melt the remaining butter in the pan until foaming. Remove from the heat briefly and sprinkle over the flour, stirring into the butter to make a golden brown paste. Return to the heat and add the milk, a splash at a time, continually stirring until all the milk has been added and you get a smooth, thick white sauce. Season well. Stir the beans and mushrooms into the white sauce, and spoon into a medium ovenproof dish.
  • Scatter over the crispy onions, then bake for 20-30 mins until bubbling and golden, covering if the onions brown too quickly.

Tips:

  • Use fresh green beans: Fresh green beans have a better flavor and texture than frozen or canned beans.
  • Cook the green beans properly: Green beans should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked green beans will be mushy.
  • Use a good quality cream of mushroom soup: The cream of mushroom soup is the base of the casserole, so it's important to use a good quality soup. Look for a soup that is made with real mushrooms and has a rich, creamy flavor.
  • Add some crispy onions: Crispy onions add a nice crunch and flavor to the casserole. You can use store-bought crispy onions or make your own.
  • Don't overcook the casserole: The casserole should be baked until it is heated through and the cheese is melted. Overcooked casserole will be dry and tough.
