1

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

2

Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds, about 0.5 centimeters thick.

3

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and add the diced onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

4

Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

5

In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced potatoes with the sautéed onion and garlic. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, and toss until evenly coated.

6

Grease a baking dish with a little butter and layer half of the potato mixture at the bottom.

7

Sprinkle half of the cheese over the potato layer.

8

Add the remaining potato mixture on top followed by the remaining cheese.

9

In a small bowl, mix the milk into the casserole and pour it evenly over the top.

10

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes.

11

After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.

12

Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the casserole to set.
