Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat the potatoes in a little canola oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss in the oven and cook for about an hour, until tender.
When the potatoes are about ten minutes from being done, pour one inch of water into a large pot. Bring to a boil.
Place the broccoli in a steamer basket and place it over the boiling water. Cover the pot and steam for about four minutes, until the broccoli are bright green and tender.
Meanwhile, toss the butter in to a saucepan over medium-low heat. When melted, add the flour and mustard powder.
Whisk until there are no more lumps, which should take about a minute. Slowly pour in the milk, whisking until it thickens up.
Add the cheese, and stir until it has melted. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
Dump the broccoli into the cheese sauce, and stir until well coated.
