[quote=Anonymous]I'm making for the first time a vegetarian shepherd's pie, and instead of the potato topping I'd like to use a pastry topping, similar to what is used in a pot pie. We've already got a potato gratin side so that's one reason I don't want to use potatoes in the shepherd's pie, plus I just like the idea of a buttery pastry topping. So my idea is to make the filling, and then, rather than layer mashed potato over the top, I'd use a sheet of pastry (which I bought from the freezer section -- didn't want to attempt several new things at once). This should work, right? Anything I should know? I plan to use an egg wash over the dough before putting in the oven. Also, my husband suggests I stick with the mashed potatoes and put the pastry over that, but that seems too much. But possibly extremely delicious. I welcome any advice! Thanks so much. [/quote]
