Traybakes

Defrosting Instructions (Optional for Faster Reheating)

If you'd prefer a shorter oven time or a gentler reheat, follow these defrosting steps before reheating:

In the Fridge (Recommended)

Remove your traybake from the freezer.
Place it in the fridge for 12–24 hours before reheating.
Keep it in the foil tray with the lid on while defrosting.
Once fully thawed, follow the regular reheating instructions – reduce oven time to 30–35 minutes at 170°C (fan).
Check temperature – the centre should reach at least 75°C.

⚠️ Do Not Defrost at Room Temperature

This can cause uneven thawing and increase the risk of foodborne illness.
Always defrost in the fridge for safety.

Vacuum Bags

Reheating Stews, Curries and Sauces from Vacuum-Sealed Bags

Option 1: Reheat in the Bag (Boil-in-Bag Method)

From Frozen:

Do not pierce or open the bag.
Place the sealed bag in a saucepan of simmering water.
Heat gently for 25–30 minutes, or until piping hot.
Carefully remove the bag with tongs, cut open, and serve.

From Defrosted:

Defrost overnight in the fridge.
Simmer the sealed bag in hot water for 10–15 minutes.
