In cooking, a casserole (from the French for 'stew pan') is a dish consisting of tough cuts of meat, poultry or game stewed in liquid with vegetables and flavourings. Vegetarian versions also exist. The pot to be used, called a casserole dish or just casserole, has a tight-fitting lid, and is placed in an oven or on the hob.
The culinary term en casserole (also from French) means 'served in the vessel used for cooking'.
Hot dish is a Midwestern (and particularly Minnesotan) term for a casserole-like main course; it is one of the quintessential foods of that region.
One of the most popular casseroles especially at church potlucks and family gatherings is green bean casserole, whose main ingredients are green beans, cream of mushroom soup and french fried onions.
