Ingredients
- 1 kg fresh green beans
- 300 ml condensed mushroom soup
- ½ cup semi-skimmed or full-fat milk
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt (+ 1 teaspoon salt for boiling water)
- 150 g fried onions (100 g and 50 g separately)
- 80 g Gruyère or/and cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 360°F (180°C).
- Wash the fresh green beans and trim the ends. You can choose to leave them whole or cut them into bite-sized pieces, depending on your preference.
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil on medium-high heat and add a teaspoon of salt. Blanch the green beans for about 4-5 minutes until they become bright green.
- Immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the condensed mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, 100g fried onions, black pepper, and salt. Mix these ingredients until well combined.
- Add the blanched green beans to the bowl and give them a good stir, ensuring the green beans are well coated with the sauce
- Place the green beans in a baking dish or casserole, sprinkle the remaining fried onions evenly over the top of the beans, and then scatter the grated cheese on top of the fried onions.
- Place the casserole in the preheated oven, and bake for approximately 25-30 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
- Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.

Notes
- When selecting fresh green beans, opt for those that are firm, smooth, and vibrant in color. <
- When blanching, ensure you add a teaspoon of salt to the boiling water.
- Avoid overcooking the green beans. They should turn bright green and stay crispy. Quickly place them in an ice bath to keep their color and crunch.
- Gruyère and cheddar are excellent options, but feel free to explore other varieties like Parmesan, Swiss, or even a blend for unique flavors.
- Watch the salt in your soup and soy sauce; adjust added salt to avoid over-seasoning.
- Prepare the casserole in advance, cover it, and refrigerate until you're ready to bake. This can save you time on busy days or during holiday meal prep.
