Place the frozen food in an open container on the
turntable.
Turn or stir the food once or twice during the
defrosting time. Large pieces of food should be turned
several times.
Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat, poultry
or fish. Drain off this liquid when turning and under no
circumstances should it be used for other purposes or
be allowed to come into contact with other foods.
Leave defrosted items to stand at room temperature
for a further 10 to 20 minutes so that the temperature
can stabilize. With poultry, the giblets can be removed
at this point. Meat can still be prepared even if it is
frozen in the centre.
