Preheat the oven to 325°F. Thinly slice the potatoes. Place in a saucepan, cover with the milk and season with some salt, pepper and grated nutmeg.
Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and simmer until the potato is almost cooked but still firm. Strain and set the milk aside.
Rub in 8x6 1/2-inch oblong baking dish with some butter. Arrange the potatoes in even layers in the dish. Reheat the milk and allow to simmer for a few minutes.
Add the cream and garlic, bring back to a simmer and check the seasoning. Simmer for a few minutes, then pour over the potatoes.
Sprinkle with the shredded cheese and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is lightly browned.

Chef's tip: When making a sauce to accompany a bland vegetable such as potatoes, be sure to season it well. |
