Gather the ingredients: waxy potatoes, cheddar cheese, Emmental cheese, chicken stock, butter, flour, salt, and pepper.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into even slices, preferably using a vegetable mandoline for uniformity.

Prepare a roux by melting butter in a saucepan, then whisk in flour to create a paste.

Gradually add chicken stock to the roux, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens.

Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

Remove from heat and stir in the cheddar and Emmental cheese until melted and creamy.

Layer the sliced potatoes in a 2.5 quart casserole or au gratin dish, pouring the cheese sauce over each layer.

Bake in the oven until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden and crispy.
