Provided by Sarah Ozimek

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1 lb fresh green beans ((trimmed and halved))
1 Tbsp butter
¼ onion ((diced - you'll use the rest later))
⅓ cup fresh bread crumbs
¼ tsp salt
2 Tbsp butter
¾ onion ((diced))
8 oz mushrooms ((diced))
2 garlic cloves ((minced))
¼ cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp dried thyme (or 1 Tbsp fresh)
¼ tsp ground mustard seed
¼ tsp ground black pepper
1 cup chicken broth ((you can also use vegetable broth))
1 cup milk
½-1 tsp salt

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Boil 4 cups of water in a large saucepan. Add green beans and blanch for 1-2 minutes, until vibrant in color. Remove the beans and transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop their cooking. Drain beans and place them in an 8x8 baking dish.
In a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Add ¼ diced onion and sauté over medium heat until soft, 2-3 minutes. Add the bread crumbs and salt. Continue to sauté 1-2 minutes, or until bread crumbs are fragrant and toasted. Transfer breadcrumbs to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
In the same (now empty) sauté pan, heat 2 Tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté 1-2 minutes, until soft. Add the mushrooms and continue to sauté 1-2 minutes, until they begin to soften.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the flour, thyme, ground mustard, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
Add the broth and milk. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, and simmer 10-12 minutes, until the gravy has thickened.
Pour the mushroom gravy over the green beans in the baking dish, and mix to coat. Top the beans with the seasoned bread crumbs. Place the dish in the oven and bake 15-20 minutes, until bubbly to the center.

Add the onions and garlic, along with a little water, to a large pan and saute over medium heat until they start to caramelize, being careful not to burn them. When they have caramelized, remove them from the heat and set aside.

Using the same pan as you cooked the onions in, saute the garlic for a minute and then add the chopped mushrooms. They should give off enough water to keep them from sticking, but you can add more water if they stick.

Grease a 9x13 inch or 3qt baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. Place cashews in a small bowl and cover with hot water. Set aside to soak for 30 minutes or overnight. (If you have a nutribullet or high speed blender, 10 minutes of soaking is fine.)
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 475F and spray a baking sheet or line with parchment paper. Thinly slice two of the onions and dice one onion, setting aside the diced one for later. Combine two sliced onions with bread crumbs, flour and 3/4 tsp salt in a large bowl, tossing to combine. Be sure to separate each individual onion piece. Spread onions in an even layer on baking sheet. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, tossing halfway through. Watch carefully to make sure they don't burn towards the end of cooking. Once onions are done, remove from oven and lower oven heat to 350F for casserole.
Bring a large pot with two inches of water to a boil. Once boiling, add green beans. Bring back to a boil (this may take a while) and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until tender. Drain and run cold water over green beans to stop cooking. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add diced onion and cook for f5 minutes. Add garlic and mushrooms and for another 10 minutes, stirring often. Add nutmeg, soy sauce, white wine, 1 1/2 tsp salt, and pepper. (It will taste salty, that's ok!). Simmer for 5 minutes.

Heat a large stockpot of water over high-heat until boiling. Meanwhile, trim and cut the green beans. Then add the beans to the boiling water and cook for 3-5 minutes, depending on how crispy you like your green beans. (Keep in mind that the beans will cook more in the oven, so err on the side of undercooking them to your taste during this step.) Then use a slotted spoon or large strainer to transfer the beans immediately into a large bowl of ice water, and give them a quick stir. This will prevent them from cooking longer. Set aside.
Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter (or olive oil) in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is partially cooked but still holds its shape. (You don’t want the onion to get too soft.) Transfer the onion to a clean bowl. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter to the sauté pan, along with the panko, and stir to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the panko is lightly golden. Remove from heat, and transfer the panko to the bowl with the onions. Add in the Parmesan, salt and pepper, and toss the onion mixture until evenly combined. Set aside.
Briefly rinse and dry the sauté pan. Then return it to the stove. Melt the butter over medium-high heat. Then add the mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and soft. Add the garlic and sauté for 1-2 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until fragrant. Stir in the flour and sauté for 1 more minute, stirring occasionally. Then add in the vegetable stock, and stir until the flour is evenly dissolved. Add the milk and Parmesan, and stir to combine. Continue cooking the sauce until it reaches a simmer and thickens. Then remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
