How to make Pan Roasted Potatoes

Prepare the bechamel; melt the butter in a saucepan, add the flour and toast for a few minutes. Pour in the hot milk (2) and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Add salt and pepper and season with a pinch of nutmeg (3).

Cut the peeled potatoes into rather thin slices, but not too much, to prevent them from breaking (4).

Distribute the potato slices in the previously buttered mold, arranging them in a radial pattern, one next to the other (5).

Spread the béchamel over the top and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese, then bake at 200 degrees C and cook for 10-15 minutes (6).
