• 4) Parboil sliced potatoes for 1-2 minutes. They should just be slightly tender. Remove and drain on towel Let them completely dry. (This can be done ahead of time.).
• 5) In small saucepan, combine flour and butter over low heat and make a roux. Then add cream and continue heating on low heat, stirring gently.
• 6) Once the cream is warm, but not boiling, add the cheese in small quantities until all the cheese is melted and incorporated. Add salt, pepper, and paprika. Continue heating until the sauce thickens.
• 6) In a greased 9x9 glass roasting dish, layer potatoes in the bottom, about two layers tall. Pour part of the cheese mixture over this layer. Repeat until all the sauce and potatoes are used.
• 7) Top the potatoes with the 1/3c. of cheese mixture.
