Add the hot milk and cook over low heat for a few minutes, until it makes a sauce. Pour the mixture into an 8 by 10-inch baking dish.
- Combine the bread crumbs and Gruyere and sprinkle on top of the zucchini mixture. Dot with 1 tablespoon of butter cut into small bits and bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbly and browned.
TOMATO, ZUCCHINI AND GRANA PADANO GRATIN
This gratin is easy to make, and can be assembled up to 6 hours in advance, covered, and kept at room temperature. Just don't add the cheese and bread crumbs. This casserole is equally good warm or at room temperature, making it a perfect do-ahead dish.
