If it is all pre-cooked and assembled ready for final bake, yeah. Just be sure you get it hot through when you do bake it.

Keep going till it looks or smells funny...... Or you get a dose of the squits.

if its good,..... you'll keep going back to it, so it will only last one night

My wife (former EHO) says if you are not going to eat something within 2-3 days you should freeze it as good practice. You might be ok at 5 days, its probably not going to kill you - but it could make you sick.

Keep it until it all gets eaten, smells funny, or goes furry.

Agree with this, though with the layered design if lasagne could furry not be countered by simply removing the top layer?

Not sure if you are kidding. But no. Removing a layer of mould would not make it safe to eat

One thing to remember about left overs is that if you plan for them they will last a lot longer.

Chilling cooked food ASAP and then storing covered in a fridge they will be safe to eat for longer. Far better than leaving it on the side after dinner until you go to bed then just randomly throwing half a baking tray of something on top of the half empty tin of beans from last week.

More effort but if I was single I'd definitely being using a cheap vac pac machine to freeze sauces, curries etc Then just reheat in hot water when you want them. Home made boil in the bag.

I've been taking mould off things for years and eating the rest and never really worried about it or been aware of ever having the squits etc because of it. Usually jars of things (pesto, jam etc) rather than actual dishes. Had some mould in the marg the other day in one corner of the pot as that tub had been fforgotten about a bit. Scrapped the whole top layer off and binned and the rest has been fine since then.

But then I'm scabby and poor and pretty much eat anything unless its actually rotting with flys on infront of me.

Exactly, scraping a bit of mould off jam or cutting a bit of cheese off is not likely to be a serious problem.

Dissecting a cooked meal to remove the mouldy bits isn't recommended.

Looks ok

Chucked some water in the dish and covered in foil.

Oven is preheating

I cooked a tagine for a dinner party last night, one lamb one veggie. In the drunken evening that then progressed both pots got left out in the kitchen from 9pm to lunchtime today when I got up and put them in the fridge.

Just had some lamb and feel fine, neighbour has just eaten some of the veggie one cold and is still talking to me.

I remember once in my miss spent youth falling asleep in a prawn curry, woke up the next day and finished it off. Didn't suffer as a result.

That's not an issue.

On 10th July I ate a pack of chicken slices that were dated "best before 16/04/2015". They were fine.

(Just goes to show you how many preservatives there are in pre-packed stuff nowadays. )

35 Minutes under foil at 180oC

10 minutes foil off at 220oC





I'm still alive.
