Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Rub the roast all over with olive oil. Combine all spices and liberally coat all sides of the roast so it makes a thick crust.

Step 3

Bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until browned, then reduce the heat to 300°F (150°C) and continue to bake for an hour to an hour and a half, or until the internal temperature of the meat is about 145°F (60°C) for medium rare.
