Once you're able to work with the half-cooked potatoes, slice them into 1/2" pieces.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for a creamy texture. Avoid waxy potatoes like Red Potatoes as they hold their shape and won't break down as well.
- Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. Use a mandoline slicer for precise and uniform slices.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water: This removes excess starch and helps prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
- Use a flavorful cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese is a classic choice, but you can also use Gruyère, Parmesan, or a combination of cheeses.
- Don't overcook the potatoes: They should be tender but still slightly firm. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy.
- Broil the potatoes until golden brown: This gives the potatoes a crispy top and helps to melt the cheese.
