To prepare, remove the outer packaging. If microwaving, pierce the film lid and heat on high for the recommended time, stirring halfway through. For oven heating, transfer the contents to an ovenproof dish, cover with foil, and bake until thoroughly heated. Ensure the meal is piping hot before serving. It is best enjoyed immediately after heating for optimal texture and flavor.
