A delightful and easy-to-make vegetable bake featuring green beans, cherry tomatoes, and caramelized onions, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and helps achieve a golden top.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the green beans for about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process.
Blanching helps retain the vibrant color and crisp texture of the beans.
In a frying pan over medium heat, sauté the onions and garlic with a sprinkle of sugar, salt, and pepper until they are caramelized and golden brown.
Stir frequently to prevent burning and ensure even caramelization.
Add the balsamic vinegar, dried basil, and oregano to the onion mixture and cook for an additional 2 minutes to blend the flavors.
The vinegar adds a tangy depth to the sweet onions.
In a baking dish, layer the green beans, followed by the onion mixture, and then top with the cherry tomatoes.
Arrange the layers evenly for a visually appealing presentation.
Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
For a crispier top, broil for the last 2 minutes of baking.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious vegetable bake!
Letting it cool slightly helps the layers set and makes serving easier.
