Traditionally shepherds pie is made using lamb (thus the name). Cottage pie is made with beef, though neither of these dishes have pastry. They are usually topped with mashed potato.
When I make this for my wife and I, sometimes we use stuffing for the top instead of mashed potatoes. Easier to make, and adds some different flavors. We usually do a ground beef version (Cottage Pie).
It looks tasty but just as an fyi, shepherds pie doesn’t have pastry in it.
Or cheese on top...Or tomato sauce...I think this might be a pizza
