This recipe gives you all the flavors of green bean casserole but it’s much simpler to prepare (not to mention lighter, fresher, and more modern). We added a touch of creme fraiche to bring a richness to the roasted vegetables. A small amount adds big flavor. Lightly toasted nuts have much more flavor than raw ones.
It takes just a few minutes to toast them.
Toast in a dry skillet over medium heat or on a sheet pan in a 350ºF oven.
Ingredients:
  • 1½ lbs uncooked string beans, ends trimmed
  • 1½ lbs fresh shiitake mushroom, tough stems discarded, caps thinly sliced
  • 4 large uncooked shallots, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ cup Crème Frâiche
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds, lightly toasted

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425ºF.
  2. Place green beans, mushrooms, and shallots in a large baking dish; drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt. Mix everything together with your hands and spread vegetables out in an even layer in a pan. Roast vegetables until they’re softened and browned in spots, stirring them once or twice, about 30 minutes.
  3. Dollop Crème Fraiche on top of warm vegetables; mix well to combine. Sprinkle almonds evenly on top; serve immediately.
  4. Serving Size: 2/3 cup.
