Wash and pat dry the red capsicum
Place in the centre of the piece of aluminium foil and wrap the capsicum completely
Keep flame at medium
Using a pair of tongs, hold the foil-wrapped capsicum over the flame for about a minute
Turn evenly so that all the sides get cooked and charred evenly
Soon you'll find that the capsicum feels softer and starts smelling slightly smoky
Do a quick check by peeking through the foil at the capsicum to see if the skin is turning dark brown or almost black in colour
When the capsicum charred all over, it's time to stop and let it cool
Take care when handing the foil and opening it because there will be trapped steam inside and can burn your hands
Slowly peel off the burnt skin if any, cut open the capsicum, and remove all the seeds
Cut into long pieces and use as a filling in sandwiches, prepare a red pepper dip, or eat as is!
