Observations

Potatoes: Use a mandoline to ensure your potato slices are all the same thickness. This will guarantee even cooking.

Onions: You can choose to sauté them first for a softer texture.

Raclette cheese: It can be replaced with other cheeses such as Reblochon to make a tartiflette cake, for example ;-)

Springform pan: This will be ideal for easy removal and to keep the raclette cake intact. Don't hesitate to line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent any leaks.
