Method

  1. 1

    Get the pan hotter than feels sensible. Dry, no oil yet.

  2. 2

    Add the oil, then the peppers in one layer. Leave them alone until they blister and blacken in patches.

    3:00
  3. 3

    Toss once, blister the other side, then tip onto a plate and salt them heavily while hot.

Eat them standing up, with your fingers, before they cool.
