Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams fresh green beans (trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces)
- 300 grams condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 120 ml milk
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 150 grams crispy fried onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) casserole dish.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and blanch the green beans by cooking them for 4-5 minutes. Drain immediately and transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, ground black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Add the blanched green beans to the creamy mixture and stir until the beans are coated evenly.
Pour the green bean mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle half of the crispy fried onions evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the remaining crispy fried onions on top.
Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the onions are golden brown.
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
