Sprinkle the roast with the cracked pepper and lavender. Cover and refrigerate overnight. 2. Remove the meat from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before roasting. Heat the oven to 375u0b0 with the rack in the center. 3. Toss the potatoes with the olive oil, salt and pepper to taste in a 9" x 13" roasting pan until well coated.
