    NO! You can't reheat something meaty/fishy that has been reheated already, unless you have booked a space in the bathroom in case you're taken ill!

    Oh dear, two very conflicting answers!

    Maybe i shouldn't risk it... but I hate wasting food :(

    I would, I don't think there are many bugs that can survive boiling point! please correct me if I'm wrong, However if it is growing I wouldn't re heat as the spores could be bad for you, and the toxins produced may not be destroyed

    I personally wouldn't, its not worth it, and after all, you havn't wasted it all. How much is left? ½ a bowl? its not much.

    Hi JulieG

    well done on searching:j The thread you mention does cover how many times you reheat chicken - although you're right, it's mainly about reheating in the first instance

    I've had chicken reheated twice in the past and each time it's made me violently sick,:eek: my body doesn't seem to be able to cope with it! You know the risks - let us know what you do and ill merge this later

    A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men :cool:

  • Well I have decided to risk it...!

    Tomorrow I will bring in a portion and just heat half at a time, so if I want more I can... if not... it will keep safer :D

    Thank you all for all your advice, much appreciated x

  • Quick question.
    Last week whilst cooking baked potato's I did extra and froze them.
    First time Ive tried this having read it somewhere on here !
    I guess I probably should have took them out of the freezer this morning to allow to defrost but I forgot.
    How long should I cook for from frozen and on what gas mark ?
  • Well aint these "quick question" threads great !
    I could still be sat here 25hrs later with a couple of frozen spuds in my hand............
