To prepare, remove the outer packaging. Most frozen meals like this can be heated in a microwave or an oven. If microwaving, follow the instructions on the packaging, usually involving piercing the film and heating for a few minutes, stirring halfway through. For oven heating, remove the film and place the bowl on a baking sheet. Cooking times will vary, so ensure the meal is heated thoroughly until hot and steaming throughout.
