COOKING TIMES AND FOOD SAFETY
Use these times purely as a guide. They’re for fresh or fully defrosted food. When
cooking frozen foods, add 2-3 minutes for seafood, and 3-6 minutes for meat and poultry,
depending on the thickness and density of the food. You’ll need to experiment to find the
optimal times and positions which suit your favorite foods and food combinations.
When cooking pre-packed foods, follow any guidelines on the package or label.
• Check food is cooked through before serving. If in doubt, cook it a bit more.
• Cook poultry, pork, burgers, etc., until the juices run clear. Cook fish, prawns, etc., until
the flesh is opaque throughout.
