Comment on "Americans can't coo-"
Lv_InSaNe_vL@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoIt is fucking delicious. And easy as shit to make too. It’s got like 4 ingredients and takes 30 mins start to finish. My family used to eat this a lot when i was growing up because we were poor and busy and this is cheap and easy. But its one of the “poor people” foods im most nostalgic about
Ingredients
- 1 can of cream of mushroom
- 1/2 milk
- 4 cups green beans (they don’t have to be fresh, canned or frozen can work too)
- French Onions
Cooking
- Mix everything into a pan (except the onions) and cook at 350f for 25 mins
- Sprinkle French Onions on top
- Cook for another 5 minutes
If you want to get really fancy you can sprinkle some shredded cheese on top after it cooks (I like Parmesan (but only the saw dust stuff in the tube), or sharp cheddar). It also makes great leftovers because it microwaves really well, and can be frozen and thawed with no issue.

For non-unitedstatesians: “French Onions” does not refer to the nationalty of the alliums, or the manner in which they’re cooked. They come from a can:

And you gotta use the Frank’s ones for casserole. Its in the constitution or something

It’s definitely also the name of the manner in which they’re cooked though, at least regionally here in the US.

My point is it’s not that. It’s the can.

Just because they’re not called French’s French Fried Onions doesn’t mean they aren’t French fried onions.
