Green Bean Casserole From Scratch

Preparation of green beans: First, we have to wash and cut the green beans (as shown below), or buy already washed and chopped green beans! You can choose not to remove the edges if you want.

Next, the green beans are blanched, which means cooking them briefly in boiling water so that they are soft but not mushy.

Blanch the chickpeas in boiling water for 4-5 minutes. If your green beans are less tender, blanch them for 4 minutes, if they are slightly soft, blanch them for 5 minutes.

Cook the mushroom cream sauce: First, melt the butter in a saucepan, then fry the chopped garlic and mushroom pieces (cut into small pieces). Add the flour and mix. Add half the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly to remove all lumps from the flour.

Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat when sauce reaches desired consistency. It should be a bit thick.

Assemble the pan: Grease the bottom of a large 9″ x 13″ rectangle pan, then add the green beans. Whole green beans are drizzled with mushroom cream sauce and topped with fried onions.

Green Bean Casserole Perfection!

Baking: Bake the fresh green beans in the oven at 375°C for 15 minutes. Since all the ingredients are technically already cooked, let all the layers come together and fry on top of the crispy onions.

Chilling: While the fresh green bean casserole is cooking, let it cool for a few more minutes and set before digging into it.

Green Bean Casserole made with fresh green beans is seriously life changing and takes green bean casserole to a whole new level.

Green Bean Casserole {no Canned Soup!}

Fresh Green Bean Casserole is a great pre-Thanksgiving dinner dish because it’s so easy to make and can be reheated well before the busy few hours leading up to dinner time.

The best way to get this going is to put the pre-blanched green peas and cream of mushroom sauce in a casserole dish, but don’t add the fried onions until you’re ready to bake. If you have pre-stored green bean casserole in the refrigerator, it’s worth baking fresh green bean casserole covered for 20 minutes at 375°C, then covered for another 15 minutes to ensure it stays warm.

If the green bean casserole is already topped with fried onions, I will bake it in two hours. The fried onions and mushrooms will get soggy if they sit too long in the cream sauce.

The Best Healthy Green Bean Casserole

Green Bean Casserole can be made by adding blanched green beans and cream of mushroom sauce to a pot and simmering for 2-3 hours. When ready, send the dish to the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes with the fried onions on top to brown the onions on top. Make sure the pot/vessel is oven safe.

Green bean casserole always tastes better with fresh ingredients, so fresh green beans make a great green bean casserole. Fresh green beans are not overly salted and have a firm texture so they are not mushy.

I don’t freeze it because freezing changes the texture of the fresh green beans and fried onions. They are huge and delicious. You can store green bean casserole in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, then reheat in the oven.
