The pepper needs to be roasted beforehand. First, wash it, clean out the insides, and coat it with half a tablespoon of olive oil. Cut it in half and place it on a baking sheet lined with foil (for easier cleaning), and forget about it for 20-30 minutes. Of course, it's better to do this the night before and you can roast not just one but several at once.
