COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Cooking guidelines from defrosted: allow product to defrost for up to 48 hours in the fridge. Once fully defrosted remove from the fridge and leave at room temperature for 30 minutes prior to cooking. Preheat oven to 200°C / fan 180°C / gas mark 6.
Remove all the packaging & pat dry with kitchen paper and place in a shallow roasting tin.
