the oven, allow it to stand for a few minutes and stir to distribute the heat evenly.
¾ Microwave heating of beverages can result delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must
be taken when handling the container.
¾ Food containing a mixture of fat and water (for example, stock) should stand for 30 to 60
seconds in the oven after it has been turned off. This is to allow the mixture to settle and

Christmas puddings, jam and mincemeat), which heat up very quickly.
¾ When heating or cooking foods that contain a lot of fat or sugar, do not use plastic
containers.

¾ Do not cook food directly on the glass tray. Put food on a suitable plate or in a bowl
before putting it in the oven.
