Quick help/advice needed.

[Dave7]

I am just about to put a frozen 'plate' sized pie in the oven.
Inside the box the pie is in a foil tray.
The whole pie is in pastry.
Instructions are.......
Place on a tray (mid oven).
There is nothing anywhere to say leave in foil/remove from foil.
Logic says..... if in a foil liner why do I need a tray.
I am inclined to remove from the liner and place on the tray.
Any QUICK thoughts please.

I'd definitely take it off the foil tray

leave in foil, less likely for any filing to leak

Leave in the foil!

How about what I do. Leave it in the foil, but 10 minutes before it is fully cooked pop it out the foil and turn upside down. I find it is less soggy that way.

Keep it in the foil, that helps to maintain the shape.

It's best to be on a tray in case any of the contents leak. Easier to clean the tray than the oven.

You probably want to check on it now, it should be about done....

Usually it'll say remove all packaging (or not)

Thank you all.
I have gone for the 'leave in the foil' option.

Get your cabbage chopped up ready and your gravy made then. Late lunch or early tea?

It may be an apple pie and Dave's a very literal guy

TBH, our appetites are shot. The plan is to just have a good slice of pie
Hopefully we can have leftovers with chips, veg and gravy tomorrow.

Good point. It is actually chicken and veg.
