In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.

Allow to cook and thicken slightly, about 3 minutes.
10

11
Line the baking dish with a crisscrossed layer of country ham, then a layer of slightly overlapping potatoes, then about 2/3 cup sauce.
12
Repeat the layering until all the ingredients are used.
13
You should have a total of 3 sets of layers, ending with the sauce on top.
14
Top with the Gruyere and cover with foil.
15
Bake until the potatoes are tender, about 1 hour.
16
Remove the foil and spoon off any fat that has pooled in the baking dish, if needed.
17
Switch the oven to broil and broil until light golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
18
Garnish with green onions before serving.
