- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt

- Arrange the remaining sliced potatoes on top of the first layer. Pour the remaining cheese sauce over the potatoes, making sure all the slices are coated.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
