Chip from hot tin flipped with egg (5)
I believe the answer is:
nacho
'chip' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'hot tin flipped with egg' is the wordplay.
'hot' becomes 'h' (abbreviation eg on taps).
'tin' becomes 'can' (synonyms).
'flipped' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'egg' becomes 'o' (an 'o' resembles an egg).
'h'+'can'='hcan'
'hcan' written backwards gives 'nach'.
'nach'+'o'='NACHO'
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for nacho that I've seen before include "Mexican bite" , "Mexican tortilla chip" , "Mexican dish" , "part of a snack?" , "Something consumed" .)
