Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams fresh green beans
- 300 grams frozen corn kernels
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 120 ml sour cream
- 180 grams shredded cheddar cheese
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 60 grams italian-seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 60 ml milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with a light coating of butter or cooking spray.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the green beans for 3–4 minutes until they are vibrant green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, salt, pepper, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well combined.
Add the blanched green beans, frozen corn, and cooked onion and garlic mixture to the bowl. Stir everything together until evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
Melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or over low heat. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the bread crumbs until evenly moistened.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the casserole, followed by the buttered bread crumbs in an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the bread crumb topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
