To prepare, remove the plastic film from the tray. Place the tray in a microwave and heat on high power for a specified time, usually a few minutes, until thoroughly heated. Alternatively, it can be heated in an oven by transferring the contents to an oven-safe dish and baking until hot. Stirring halfway through the microwave heating process can help ensure even cooking and temperature distribution. Ensure the meal is piping hot before serving.
