Add fresh grated nutmeg, pinch of salt and pepper and stir in well.

Remove from heat and place contents of the pan into a large bowl to let cool slightly.

Preheat oven to 375.

Stir in your 2 1/2 cups cheese and 1/3 cup panko until well combined.

Add contents of bowl to a glass casserole dish (8×8) At this point taste test for salt and pepper – add some only if needed.

sprinkle the top with the remaining panko and Parmesan cheese.
Drizzle with just a touch of olive oil.

Place in the oven and bake about 10 minutes or until is gets bubbly around the edges.

Turn on broiler and broil (keeping a close eye) an additional 3-4 minutes until slightly browned on top.
