    Grate cheese. Cut ham into strips. Put half of the béchamel in a greased ovenproof dish. Spread chard and ham on top. Pour the rest of the béchamel sauce over it and sprinkle with gruyère and parmesan. Bake gratin in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: see manufacturer) for approx. 25 minutes until golden brown
