Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.

In a large skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes. Do not let them brown.

Add the heavy cream, milk, nutmeg, salt, and pepper to the skillet with the leeks. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.

Arrange half of the sliced potatoes in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. Top with half of the leek and cream mixture. Sprinkle with half of the Gruyère and Parmesan cheeses.

Repeat the layering with the remaining potatoes, leek mixture, and cheeses.

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 45 minutes.

Let the gratin stand for 10-15 minutes before serving.
