Courgette, Potato and Cheese Casserole

This is again from Mum's recipe book and I think we are still in the 1970s, though we may be moving into the 1980s. Certainly Mum was never much interested in vegetarian cookery until she gained a vegetarian son-in-law-to-be in the mid 1990s so I'm expecting the "Vegetables" section of her book (which this comes from) to be a bit sparser than the "Meat" section.
( Ingredients )
( Method )
Changes, Mistakes and Substitutions
On the assumption this is a recipe from an age where the British boiled any vegetable to death before doing anything else with it, I only parboiled the potatoes for 10 minutes and didn't parboil the courgette at all.
I was using half quantities but was generous with the breadcrumbs, cheese and water.
Verdict
Well, obviously, this is bake not a casserole. Other than that it was unobjectionable but dull.
