Tried and it is good. To easily roast capsicum, cut it into 2, remove seeds etc, cut 1 inch slit in the middle on top and bottom of the half capsicum and press lightly and broil on high in an oven in a glass baking tray (USA ovens). This way it saves a lot of time. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to roast all 3 capsicums.
