these separately, see below.
Place smaller items of
food to the centre of the plate, larger and thicker foods

through reheating. Ensure food is thoroughly reheated
before serving.
Cover with vented microwave cling film or suitable lid,

70P (MEDIUM HIGH). Turn over halfway through.
NOTE: Ensure poultry is thoroughly reheated, before
serving.

WARNINGS:
Oil & Fat:
Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and fire. Stand back
when opening the oven door to allow heat or steam to disperse. When removing covers (such as
cling film), opening roasting bags or popcorn packaging, direct steam away from face and hands.
Never heat liquids in narrow-necked containers, as this could result in the
contents erupting from the container and may cause burns.
• Remove food from foil or metal containers before reheating.
• 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 or Christmas pudding.
