For a richer flavor, try using a mix of Cheddar and Gruyere cheese. If you don't have a microwave-safe casserole dish, a glass baking dish works well too. Be careful when removing the dish from the microwave, as it will be very hot. To add more flavor, consider adding garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika to the potato layers. Ensure potatoes are sliced thinly for even cooking. Adjust cooking time depending on your microwave's power; potatoes are done when tender.

Feb 25, 2025I found that the potatoes were still a little hard after the initial 10 minutes, so I cooked them for another 5 minutes and they were perfect.
