3 oz. grated sharp Cheddar
8 potatoes, skinned and sliced 1/8 inch thick
2 tbsp. butter
Dash salt and pepper

Melt the butter in a large skillet and arrange the first layer of potatoes so that they cover the skillet, over-lapping. Season lightly and add a layer of cheese. Repeat. End with a layer of cheese. Cover the pan and cook at a medium heat for 40-50 minutes. Loosen and serve.
