How to Make Best Ever Green Bean Casserole Fresh

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound of green beans and cook until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Immediately transfer beans to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking and preserve color. Drain well and set aside.
4. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
5. Add 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced, and sauté for 3-5 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Stir in 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in 1 cup sour cream until smooth.
7. Simmer for 2 minutes, then taste and adjust seasoning.
8. Cut green beans into 2-inch pieces.
9. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small pan. Add 2 cups crushed fried onions, tossing to coat.
10. Spread green beans in a 9x13 inch casserole dish. Pour mushroom sauce over beans.
11. Top with 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese and the buttered fried onions.
12. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
13. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
