Step by step recipe

Step 1 - ⌛ 40 min.

Peel and cook 700 g potatoes in a pan of salted water.

Step 2 - ⌛ 10 min.

When they are tender (check by piercing with a knife: the blade should pass through to the middle easily), drain and, when completely cooled, cut into pieces and spread evenly in a buttered gratin dish.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 3 - ⌛ 35 min.

Prepare 500 g broccoli (see how to do this here) and lay evenly over the potatoes.

Step 4 - ⌛ 3 min.

Spread the 250 g bechamel sauce over the top.

Step 5 - ⌛ 3 min.

Finish by scattering 100 g grated cheese and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes...

Step 6 - ⌛ 30 min.

...until the top is nicely browned. You can put the dish under the grill briefly to finish browning.

Remarks

For the grated cheese, I advise you to try a mature Cheddar, which gives an excellent flavour.

Keeping: After cooking, a few days in the fridge. .
