Prepacked Frozen Foods Remove packaging, including any foil and place in a suitable dish. NOTES: · To defrost food, use either 30P (MEDIUM LOW/DEFROST) or 10P (LOW) microwave power. · It is important to turn food over, separate (where appropriate) and rearrange to ensure even defrosting. · Standing time is necessary to ensure thorough defrosting. 21 ADVICE FOR REHEATING WARNINGS: Oil & Fat: Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and fire. When removing covers (such as cling film), opening roasting bags or popcorn packaging, direct steam away from face and hands. Stand back when opening the oven door to allow heat or steam to disperse. Never heat liquids in narrow necked containers such as baby bottles, as this could result in the contents erupting from the container and may cause burns. Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. · Reheating times will be affected by the shape, depth, quantity and temperature of food together with the size, shape and material of the container. · To avoid overheating and fire, special care must be taken when reheating foods with a high sugar or fat content, for example, mince pies and Christmas pudding. · Canned potatoes should not be heated in the microwave oven, follow the manufacturer's instructions on the can. Plated meals Remove any poultry or meat portions, reheat these separately, see below. Place smaller items of food to the centre of the plate, larger and thicker foods to the edge. Cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on 50P (MEDIUM), stir/rearrange halfway through reheating. Cover with vented microwave cling film or suitable lid, reheat on 50P (MEDIUM). Place thickest parts of the portions towards the outside of the dish, cover with microwave cling film and reheat on 70P (MEDIUM HIGH). Cover with vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid and reheat on 50P (MEDIUM). Stir at least once during reheating.
