Ingredients
  

  • 6 red peppers

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 430° F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the red peppers in half, remove the stem, seeds and white membranes. Place them cut side down on the tray and roast on the top shelf for 30-35 minutes, or until blistered and charred.
  • Remove the peppers from the oven and transfer to a bowl, cover with a tea towel and allow the peppers to sweat for at least 10 minutes.
  • Peel the skin off the peppers with your hands. The skins should slide off easily.
  • Store the peppers in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-6 days, or store in a jar with olive oil where they'll stay fresh in the fridge for up to two weeks.
