PREHEAT oven to 400 degrees. Butter a casserole dish; set aside.
In a medium-size saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Mix in the flour and salt, and stir constantly with a whisk for one minute. Stir in milk and evaporated milk. Cook until mixture has thickened. Stir in 2 cups of cheese and grated onion. Continue stirring until melted, about 30 to 60 seconds.
Place 1/3 of the potatoes in the bottom of the prepared dish. Pour 1/3 of the sauce over that; repeating until all is gone. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour. Sprinkle the remaining cup of cheese over all. Uncover and bake for 30 minutes until melted and bubbly.
