Peel the potatoes, slice them, and boil them in salted water.

First, arrange the cooked potatoes in a baking dish, then sprinkle half of the ham over them. Then arrange the asparagus and the rest of the ham on top. Mix the cream, sour cream, and milk well. Stir in the hollandaise sauce. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle chives (to taste) into the sauce. Spread the mixture over the asparagus and potato mixture. Spread the grated cheese evenly and bake at 200°C for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
