  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan) or 200°C (conventional).
  2. Cut the top off the red bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes. Set the pepper aside.
  3. In a pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and cook the chopped onion until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  5. Add the minced beef to the pan, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
  7. Spoon the beef mixture into the hollowed red pepper, packing it tightly. Place the stuffed pepper in an ovenproof dish.
  8. Top the stuffed pepper with the grated cheddar cheese.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the pepper is tender.
  10. Let it cool slightly before serving.
