Preparation
Heat a non-stick frying pan over high heat. Wash and dry the peppers. Place them on the hot pan over medium-high heat for about 40 minutes.
Turn the peppers frequently on all sides, using two forks to avoid burning.
Once cooked, place the peppers in a freezer bag and leave to cool for around 10-15 minutes. The steam created inside the bag will help peel them more easily.
When the peppers are cold, peel them with your hands.
And now your pan-roasted peppers are ready!
