Steps:
- Boil the potatoes in their jacket for about 20 to 30 minutes until cooked.
- Drain the potatoes and leave them to cool a little before peeling them and slicing them To prepare the Bechamel, melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Pour the flour over the melted butter and mix well to form a soft dough.
- Maintaining a low heat, add progressively the milk to the dough, mixing well until all the milk is absorbed and continue pouring the milk until obtaining a sauce that is not not too thick (it should only be thick enough to coat the eggs and potatoes).
- Season the bechamel with salt and nutmeg.
- Slice the boiled eggs and add them to the bechamel.
- Add the sliced potatoes to the bechamel sauce, mixing delicately so not to mash them.
- Serve at once.
