Like meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the 

centre of the dish to the outside.

After cooking ensure adequate standing time. Remove food from oven and stir 

if possible. Cover during standing time can allow the food to fi nish  cooking 

completely.

Look for signs indicating that cooking temperature has been reached.

A normal part of microwave cooking. The humidity and moisture in food will 

infl uence the amount of moisture in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not 

cause as much condensation as uncovered foods. Ensure that the ventilation 

openings are not blocked.

the food as it may melt.

Arrange food in a single even layer on the shallow dish. This will ensure that 

all parts of the food defrosts evenly.

Foods may be stuck together when removed from the freezer. It is important to 

separate foods as soon as possible during defrosting.

e.g. steaks, chops

Standing time is necessary to ensure food is thoroughly defrosted. Food must 

stand, covered, for a length of time to ensure the centre has completely

defrosted.
