Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375ðF (190ðC) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Thinly slice potatoes using a mandoline or sharp knife, then parboil for 10 minutes until slightly tender but not falling apart; drain well.
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; sauté minced onion until translucent and soft.
-
Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until browned and liquid has evaporated; stir in finely chopped prosciutto and cook for 2 more minutes.
-
Spread a thin layer of béchamel or tomato sauce in the bottom of the baking dish.
-
Layer half the potato slices over the sauce, followed by half the mushroom-prosciutto mixture and a layer of grated cheese.
-
Repeat layers with remaining potatoes, mushroom mixture, and cheese, finishing with a top layer of potatoes and extra cheese.

Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes, then remove foil and bake for another 20-25 minutes until potatoes are tender and top is golden brown.

Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving to allow layers to set.
