Bloke making love mostly to make bread (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chapati

'bread' is the definition.
(chapati is a kind of bread)

'bloke making love mostly' is the wordplay.
'bloke' becomes 'chap' (both can mean a man).
'making love' becomes 'at it' (I've seen this before).
'mostly' means to remove the last letter.
'atit' with its final letter taken away is 'ati'.
'chap'+'ati'='CHAPATI'

'to make' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for chapati that I've seen before include "Indian food" , "Unleavened bread of India" , "Piece of bread (Indian)" , "I may be taken in with Indian" , "What Indian waiter might bring" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
