1 1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons flour
2/3 cup cheddar cheese, grated
2 lbs purple potatoes, unpeeled and sliced thinly
1 cup shallot, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 slices bacon
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

Begin by making the gratin sauce. In a small pan place the butter and melt. Over medium heat add the flour and stir to combine, approximately one minute. Slowly whisk in the milk and stir until thickened. Add cheese and when melted remove pan from heat. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the olive oil to a frying pan and heat. Add shallots and saute until slightly brown and caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside. Place bacon in same skillet and cook through but do not let bacon get crispy. Remove from pan and cut into one inch pieces.
Grease a gratin dish or shallow baking dish and add one half of the sliced potatoes. Sprinkle the shallots over the potatoes and then add the remaining potato slices. Pour the gratin sauce over the potatoes and spoon into visible cracks and crevices. Top with parmesan cheese and bacon. Bake for 40 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven. Serve immediately.

Steps:

Slice the potatoes 1/4-inch thick.
Melt the butter in a skillet over low heat. Add the onions and saute until almost translucent. Add the garlic just before onions are done. Stir in the cream and bring to a simmer. Add the salt along with most of the Cheddar and Parmesan.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
In a baking dish make multiple layers of sliced potatoes and cream sauce ending with a layer of cream sauce. Sprinkle with the remaining Cheddar, Parmesan, and panko.
Bake the potatoes for 60 minutes. Cook's Note: Cooking time may be decreased by deep- frying the potato slices for 3 minutes and simmering the cheese sauce until the dish is ready to be assembled.
