Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 425° F. Slice the peeled potatoes into ¾ inch pieces.Place the potato pieces into a gallon-sized plastic zipper bag with olive oil. Close the bag and toss the potatoes well. Work the potatoes with your fingers for a minute so all the potato pieces are lightly covered with oil.Open the bag and sprinkle in the garlic, paprika, ½ tsp salt and a pinch of black pepper. Close the bag, then shake and massage the potato pieces for a minute or two so that all the pieces are evenly coated with seasoning. Generously grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or olive oil. Spread potatoes out in an even layer onto the sheet. Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and let the potatoes roast for about 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through cooking, till the potato pieces are browned, crisp and cooked through. Remove cooked potatoes from oven and reduce oven temperature to 375° F.Clean the broccoli and cut into small florets. In a medium saucepan, bring 1/2 inch water to a boil. Place broccoli florets in the pan and cover with a lid. Let the broccoli steam for 3-4 minutes till bright green and tender. Pour broccoli into a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Shake broccoli, then pat dry to remove excess water. Rinse the saucepan. Place broccoli into a large mixing bowl. Add the roasted potato pieces. Toss to mix. Lightly grease your gratin dish or baking dish with olive oil or nonstick cooking oil spray. Pour the mixed vegetables into the dish.In the rinsed saucepan, melt 1 tbsp butter. Whisk in 2 tbsp potato starch. Add milk slowly, ¼ cup at time, whisking frequently, till it thickens and begins to bubble around the edges. Whisk in the grated cheddar cheese and stir till melted and smooth. Whisk in ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper. Pour the cheese sauce evenly across the top of the broccoli and potato pieces.Place the assembled gratin into the oven and bake for 20-30 minutes till edges begin to brown and the cheese sauce is bubbly.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
