Wash the potatoes, bring to a boil with water, and cook for 20-30 minutes. Peel while still hot, let cool, and slice. For the béchamel sauce, peel and dice 1 onion. Sauté the onion and ham in butter. Stir in the flour and heat with the onions until light yellow. Add the meat broth and milk, whisk, bring the sauce to a boil, and simmer for about 10 minutes. Strain the sauce through a sieve if desired (but this is not necessary), add the potatoes, and bring to a boil. Season the dish with salt, pepper, grated nutmeg, and curry powder. Sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with a green salad.
