Note

For a vegan version, ensure the cream of mushroom soup is vegan-friendly (many condensed soups contain dairy) and use vegan mozzarella and Parmesan alternatives.

To make this dish ahead, assemble the casserole up to the point of baking. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if cooking from cold.

For extra crispy edges, sprinkle a little extra Parmesan on top during the final 5 minutes of baking.

Use a mandoline slicer for uniform, thin potato slices which ensures even cooking.
