Defrosting and cooling in the
main oven
To defrost frozen foods, turn the
main oven control to the defrost
position, place the food in the centre
of the oven and close the door.
To
cool foods after cooking prior to
refrigerating or freezing, turn the
main oven control to the defrost
position and open the door.
Defrosting times
Small or thin pieces of frozen fish or
meat - eg; fish filets, prawns & mince
will take approximately 1 - 2 hours.
Placing the food in a single layer will
reduce the thawing time.
A medium sized casserole or stew will
take approximately 3 - 4 hours.
A 1
1
⁄
2
kg / 3lb oven ready chicken will
take approximately 5 hours, remove
the giblets as soon as possible.
Be safe
Do not defrost stuffed poultry using this
method.
Do not defrost larger joints of meat
and poultry over 2kg / 4lb using this
method.
N e v e r place uncooked food for
defrosting next to cooked food which
is to be cooled, as this can lead to
cross contamination.
Defrosting meat, poultry, and fish can
be accelerated using this method
but make sure they are completely
thawed before cooking thoroughly.
Place meat and poultry on a trivet in a
meat tin.
To help the air circulate freely
Position the shelves evenly within the
oven and maintain a clearance from
the oven roof and base.
If more than one cooking dish or
baking tray is to be used on a shelf,
leave a gap of at least 25mm
between the items themselves and the
oven interior. Allow enough space
between shelves for food that will rise
during cooking.
Do not place items on the oven base as
this will prevent air circulating freely.
