oven and close the door.
Be safe
X DO NOT defrost stuffed poultry using this method.
X DO NOT defrost larger joints of meat and poultry over 2kg.(4lb) using this method.
X NEVER 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 sh can be accelerated using this method but make sur they are
completely thawed before cooking. Place meat and poultry on a trivet or in a vessel.
Defrosting times
Small or thin pieces of frozen sh or meat e.g. sh llets, prawns, and mince will take
approximately 1-2 hours. Placing the food in a single layer will reduce the thawing time.
A medium sized casserole will take approximately 3-4 hours.
A 1 1/2 kg (3lb) chicken will take approximately 5 hours.
