Roast one small red bell pepper in the oven or on the stove top- wrap in aluminum foil and place over the gas stovetop, turning occasionally. Cook until soft, 5-10 minutes. Cool completely.
in the meantime, peel 800 grams (2 pounds) of tomatoes. If the tomatoes are firm enough, peel them using a vegetable peeler. Alternatively, use a sharp knife and make a crosswise incision. Place in boiling water for one minute, and shock in ice water. Remove the skins easily and cut in half.
