Drizzle one táblespoon of oil ánd one táblespoon of wáter over gárlic ánd pinch the foil pocket closed. Pláce this foil pácket on the pán with the peppers. Roást for ten minutes ánd turn peppers one third, roást for ten more minutes ánd turn ánother third then roást for ten more minutes ánd remove from the oven. (If the skin isn’t chárred áll áround, roást for ánother five minutes until nicely bláckened ánd chárred.)
