Additional information about this Courgette and Potato Casserole recipe

A slightly different flavour can be achieved by using different cheeses in the cheese sauce. Cheddar or Gruyere are the usual but don't be afraid to use other hard cheeses such as double Gloucester or Lancashire or a blue cheese such as Stilton or Danish Blue.
