Method
 

  1. #### 1. Preheat the Oven
  2. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with olive oil or cooking spray.

  4. Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on the prepared baking dish.
  5. Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden and tender.
  6. #### 3. Prepare the Broccoli
  7. While the potatoes are roasting, blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 2–3 minutes, then drain and set aside. Alternatively, steam the broccoli until crisp-tender.
  8. #### 4. Make the Sauce
  9. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, milk, and Parmesan cheese. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
  10. #### 5. Assemble the Casserole

  13. Pour the prepared sauce over the layers, spreading it evenly.
  14. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top.
  15. #### 6. Bake the Casserole

  17. #### 7. Serve
