Flavour Notes
The onions cook for forty-five minutes before they go anywhere near the filling — that's where the sweetness lives. Phyllo is brushed between each sheet with a warm-butter-and-olive-oil mix so it crisps without browning too fast. Reheat in a hot oven, never a microwave, or you'll undo all the crisp work.
Heating Instructions
All meals are fully cooked and delivered refrigerated. Keep refrigerated (consume within 4 days) or freeze immediately for up to 6 weeks. For best results, defrost overnight in the fridge — frozen-direct timings are a fallback, not the target.
Reheat to 75°C / 167°F internal temperature — a knife-tip held 2 seconds against the centre should feel hot, not warm. Always rest 2–5 minutes after reheating so the centre fully evens out. Reheat once only; never re-reheat leftovers.
Prepared in a kitchen that also handles gluten, tree nuts, dairy and soy — see the allergens list for dish-specific information.
Heat gently until piping hot throughout. Times are a guide — check the centre before serving.
