Boil half of eggs another way, please (6)
I believe the answer is:
oblige
'please' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'boil half of eggs another way' is the wordplay.
'half of' means to take half the letters.
'another way' is an anagram indicator.
'eggs' cut in half is 'eg'.
'boil'+'eg'='boileg'
'boileg' is an anagram of 'OBLIGE'.
(Other definitions for oblige that I've seen before include "Perform a favour for" , "Please" , "Do favour or coerce" , "Compel legally, morally" , "Compel - do favour to" .)
