Yes. Go for it!

Blergh no

parietal · 17/03/2023 17:46

no sounds odd

RoseslnTheHospital · 17/03/2023 17:46

No, it won't melt.

00100001 · 17/03/2023 17:46

Just put butter and egg in the mash.

Woodywasatwat · 17/03/2023 17:46

God no!! It would be a really odd texture.

I feel your pain though. I had cheese less shepards pie last night. Not the same.

SinisterKnitter · 17/03/2023 17:46

No. Just dot some butter on it.

Rauha · 17/03/2023 17:47

Noooooo

It’s a bit astringent for my tastes so I’m going to say no. Plus sometimes it melts weird.

Maybe just add an extra bit of butter or stir in some chopped spring onion to give it some flavour?

Walterwhiteswifey · 17/03/2023 17:47

It wont melt as well as Cheddar or Mozzarella and may give it a tangy finish. I would do it if I didn't have any other cheese though.

I love feta and mashed potato (with a bit of lemon) but its very different than standard cheesy mash and I don't think it would work on shepherd's pie. I'd forgot the cheese rather than substitute

MaryJean87 · 17/03/2023 17:52

No it will stay in lumps and not melt.

Hoppinggreen · 17/03/2023 17:52

Well you can
But you shouldn’t

Silverlog · 17/03/2023 17:52

I wouldn’t do this. I love feta and also love mash but don’t think it would be right at all.

DramaAlpaca · 17/03/2023 17:54

Any sort of cheese on shepherd's pie? Yuck no. Just lovely, buttery mash.

Emmamoo89 · 17/03/2023 17:56

I love feta but no

vodkaredbullgirl · 17/03/2023 17:56
