Is it permissible to place dry food with a little sauce on a hot plate?
It is permissible to place dry meat on a hot plate, and even if there is a small amount of sauce, it is permitted since the sauce is secondary to the meat (Shulchan Aruch 318, 4. Yabia Omer 7, 42).
Is it permissible to ask an Ashkenazi person to heat up a liquid dish that has cooled?
Reheating a liquid dish that has cooled is considered cooking it. One who reheats it until it reaches a temperature that would scald the hand violates a Torah prohibition. However, one may ask an Ashkenazi person to heat the dish for them if it has not completely cooled (Chazon Ovadia 4, 397).
