DEFROSTING
5)
The defrosting function allows you to defrost frozen
foods. The oven fan operates without heat and
circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the
oven. This increases the rate at which defrosting
takes place. This function is particularly suitable for
delicate food which sould be damaged by heat, e.g.
cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and
other yeast products.
HINTS AND TIPS
• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film
to prevent drying out during defrosting.
• Small or thin pieces of fish fillet or peeled prawns,
mince, liver and thin chops will defrost in 1-2
hours. Ensure that they are cooked or refrigerated
immediately after defrosting to maintain good food
hygiene.

• Place the food to be defrosted in a single layer and
turn over half way through the defrosting process,
where possible.
• Joints of meat or poultry MUST BE THAWED
THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING. A 1.5 kg/3lb
oven-ready chicken will thaw in approximately 5
hours. The giblets must be removed as soon as
possible during the thawing process.
• Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2kg/4lb in
weight are suitable for defrosting in this way.
ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THAWING.
• Take care to follow the basic rules for hygiene
when handling fresh, frozen, raw and cooked foods.
