Steps

40 mins

1

Preheat oven to 180°c fan.
2

Cut the peppers in half straight down the middle. Remove the core, seeds and white pith. Place them on a flat baking tray and rub with oil.
3

Generously sprinkle the bell peppers with black pepper. And do the same with the chilli flakes/powder if using.
4

Finely chop the onion and divide it between the peppers. Then put the peppers into the oven for 20 minutes and then remove them, they should just be starting to char at the edges.
5

Generously grate cheese onto the peppers, the more the better. Then put them back in the oven for another 20 minutes.
6

Remove from the oven and serve immediately. They will be charred but that's totally ok with peppers.
