GREEN ONION CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. and butter a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.
• In a kettle cook scallions and garlic in butter over moderate heat until scallions are softened, about 20 minutes. Stir in cream and 1/4 cup Parmesan and transfer to baking dish.
• In a skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté bread crumbs, stirring, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer bread crumbs to a bowl and cool. Add remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Top casserole with bread crumb mixture. Casserole may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring casserole to room temperature before proceeding. Bake casserole, uncovered, in middle of oven until hot, 15 to 20 minutes.

GREEN BEAN AND PEARL ONION CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Prepare the casserole: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and pearl onions and cook until the beans are bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the vegetables, then plunge into an ice bath to stop the cooking. Drain, then remove the skins from the pearl onions.
• Combine the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallot and cook, stirring, until the shallot is caramelized, about 5 minutes. Add the bay leaves, then the mushrooms. Stir to combine, then add the thyme and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the mixture with the flour to tighten it up. Add the milk and boil 3 minutes to thicken; remove the bay leaves.
• Place the green beans and pearl onions in a 3-quart casserole dish. Pour the "mushroom soup" over the vegetables and toss to make sure they are well coated. Transfer to the oven and bake 30 minutes.
• Make the topping: Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven until a deep-fry thermometer registers 360 degrees F. Toss the shallots in a bowl with enough flour to lightly coat. Working in batches, fry the shallots until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove to paper towels to drain; season lightly with salt. Scatter over the casserole before serving.

FRENCH ONION GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir the onions into the pan; cook and stir until very soft and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in sherry vinegar. Transfer to a small bowl, and reserve.
• In the same skillet, melt 2 more tablespoons butter. Whisk in 2 tablespoons flour. Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat until the flour smells like baked pie crust, about 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, then whisk in nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and thyme. Bring to simmer, and cook until thickened, whisking constantly, 3 more minutes. Transfer to a bowl and reserve.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in clean skillet; stir in panko until all crumbs are coated; reserve.
• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over medium heat, and boil beans until bright green and crisp but not raw tasting, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain very well.
• Spoon half of the caramelized onions into the prepared casserole dish; top with green beans. Season with salt and black pepper. Spread reserved white sauce over the green beans; sprinkle with half of the Gruyere cheese. Top with the rest of the onions, and use the back of a spoon to push onions down into sauce and cheese. Top with the buttered panko crumbs, the remaining Gruyere, and Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until hot throughout and lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
