• 2 lb potatoes
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• ¼ cup fresh dill
• 1.5 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper

   Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat the 2 lb pork shoulder dry with paper towels, then rub with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.

   Place the pork in a roasting pan and roast for 30 minutes, until the surface begins to brown.

   After 30 minutes, add the potatoes around the pork. Drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and toss to coat in the pan juices.
