Preheat the oven. Prepare all the ingredients and preheat the oven to 200 C - we will cook step by step from them 🥔🧀✨

Melt the butter. Meanwhile, melt the butter in another pot over low heat

Add the flour. Add the flour and whisk everything thoroughly over low heat for about 1-2 minutes

Make the bechamel. Gradually pour in the milk, bring to a boil over medium heat, then cook over low heat for about 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens

Season the sauce. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper, then set aside - the bechamel is ready

Slice the scamorza. Slice the smoked cheese

Peel the potatoes. Drain the cooked potatoes, let them cool slightly, then peel them

Create the bottom layer. Put a layer of bechamel into a baking dish and arrange a layer of sliced potatoes on top

Add the filling. Add the ham and slices of smoked cheese

Cover with a layer of potatoes and pour over the bechamel. Place another layer of potatoes on top (it does not matter if they break), press everything down lightly, sprinkle with grated Parmesan, and bake in the oven at 200 C for about 25 minutes

Let rest and serve. Remove from the oven, let rest for a moment, then serve 🍽️✨
