Cook got saffron for dish (10)
I believe the answer is:
stroganoff
'dish' is the definition.
(Stroganoff is an example)
'cook got saffron' is the wordplay.
'cook' indicates an anagram.
'got'+'saffron'='gotsaffron'
'gotsaffron' is an anagram of 'STROGANOFF'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for stroganoff that I've seen before include "meat dish" , "Beef dish with mushrooms in sour cream" .)
