Bread fellow has at half-time (8)
I believe the answer is:
chapatti
'bread' is the definition.
(chapatti is a kind of bread)
'fellow has at half-time' is the wordplay.
'fellow' becomes 'chap' ('chap' can be a synonym of 'fellow'**).
'has' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'half' means to take half the letters.
'time' halved is 'ti'.
'chap'+'at'+'ti'='CHAPATTI'
(Other definitions for chapatti that I've seen before include "Feature of Indian cuisine" , "Flat pancake-like Indian bread" , "Indian pancake of unleavened wholemeal bread" , "food" .)
