Fray Bentos Pudding

[hardy49]

This may sound stupid but here goes......

We bought a Fray Bentos pudding but when we got home we saw that it was for a microwave. As we do not have a microwave would it be ok to remove the lid, cover the top with foil and simmer it in a saucepan of water ?

Should be OK hardy.

I assume the container it is in would be plastic (microwaveable) so I suggest it would not be to good in boiling water.

[retrocop]

Why not remove contents from container and steam it?

[AlwaysConfused]

just open the lid and pop it in the oven, will take a little longer but the same result

[AlwaysConfused]

sorry, didn't consider it would be plastic!

[Retrochic]

If its suitable for the microwave then it will probably melt if you put it in the oven but should be ok in a steamer. I know where I'd put it......in the bin

[vakayu]

Does it not give alternatives on container?

[hardy49]

Thanks for your replies - I think you may be right Retrochic and bin it !!

Id give it to someone who HAS got a microwave. Or donate it to your local charity stall.
