how long to cook sausages after defrosting them
Only defrost meat in the microwave if you're going to cook and eat it straight away. The manufacturerâs instructions should be followed. Try to cook the raw meat within 24 hours of defrosting. As a rule of thumb, allow 24 hours to defrost each 2.5kg/5lbs of meat or chicken. If you defrost raw meat and then cook it thoroughly, you can freeze it again, but remember never to reheat foods more than once.
