Salt to taste 

Preheat your oven 

In a medium pan, boil the stock

When boiling.  Put the sliced potatoes in a pan and pour enough stick to cover the potatoes  cook until tender. About 25 min

Mix half the cheese with the eggs and cream. Mix well to make a custard at salt and the nutmeg 

Drain the potatoes. Add the custard and top with the remaining grated cheese. Bake for about 20 minutes. Until the top is golden brown.
