Defile and eat! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gorge

This clue is a double definition.

'defile' is the first definition.
('gorge' can be a synonym of 'defile')

'eat' is the second definition.
(gorging is a kind of eating)

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for gorge that I've seen before include "Devour" , "Deep valley" , "Overindulge" , "Chasm; overeat" , "Steep narrow ravine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
