For a richer flavor, consider using Gruyere cheese in addition to or instead of the Swiss cheese.
If you don't have ham, cooked sausage or bacon would also be delicious.
Ensure the potatoes are sliced thinly for even cooking.
To prevent the cornflakes from burning, you can add them during the last 5 minutes of baking.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
