  • Sprinkle with some cheese, a little salt, then add another layer of potatoes, salt again, and sprinkle with more cheese. Arrange the rest of the potatoes in this way. Sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese.
  • Pour the cream mixed with eggs and Parmesan over the potato slices, then cover the dish with a lid or (tightly) with aluminium foil.
  • Put it in the oven on a flat baking tray and bake according to the instructions shown on the display.

Celery and apple puree
