Rinse the fresh tomatoes and cut into slices.
Drain the potatoes. Peel and cut into slices.

For the white sauce, melt the butter and sauté the flour in it. Pour in the milk and broth and stir vigorously. Simmer for 5 minutes while stirring. Season the sauce with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Now layer 1/3 of the potato slices on the bottom of the dish. Cover with the meat sauce. Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes and meat, ending with a layer of potatoes, the tomato slices and mushrooms on top.
Season with spices.
