    Quiche.

    That'd use up 4 fl oz defrosted cream.

    I make a pastry base (I know some folks do pastryless quiche, too) and put in tomato, diced onion, Qu0rn chicken-style pieces (you can use bacon if you're a meat-eater) grated cheese (I use extra, extra mature Cheddar) and fresh basil from the pot on the windowsill.

    For the quiche mix, I use 4 fl oz double cream, 2 eggs and a good dose of black pepper. Whisk together, pour over the stuff in the pastry base, bake at 180 C for 45 mins.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    I would make a desert with it - lemon posset where the cream is cooked with sugar and lemon then chilled, I top mine with raspberries and serve with shortbread biscuits.
