I have some shortcrust pastry in the freezer, great idea, thanks!

Cook the pastry until it's slightly brown then top with grated cheese..I do that with my leek,bacon & chicken pie.

What about some herby dumplings for something different?

4oz self raising flour
2oz suet
salt and pepper
chopped parsley and chives

throw in a bowl add enough water to bind and either make into balls or cut into scone shapes

What about mashed carrot and turnip.

I see you have pastry but my first thought would have been a crumble topping with grated cheese in it.

I was going to suggest pastry, other people are more on the ball.

Warning do not top with oats (in an effort to be healthy), my mum did this once many years ago and we still refer to the offending fish porridge which resulted :rotfl:

I've done oven chip topping before lol.

Boild eggs sliced then wheetabix and cheese sprinkled over it tastes a lot better than it sounds.

I always use mashed cauliflower with grated cheese and coarse ground black pepper and its lovely

Rounds of sliced baguette (especially if you've got a stock of 'ready to bake' ones) brushed with melted butter and browned under the grill also works well.
