Pasta topper (5)
I believe the answer is:
sauce
'pasta topper' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for sauce that I've seen before include "Cheek; condiment" , "Condiment - impertinence" , "Food accompaniment" , "''Hunger is good .....''" , "Liquid on food" .)
