Self reviewing code changes

For new code:
Read the new code and explain the code to an imaginative reviewer. Make changes as necessary.

For code changes:
Pull up a diff of code changes, read and explain each change to an imaginative reviewer. Make changes as necessary.
If XML files are to be reviewed, explain what each attribute does to the imaginative reviewer. As you explain, if there is anything unusual, it will come up.
