Desperate badger digs hole to find something to eat (4-6,4)
I believe the answer is:
hard-boiled eggs
'find something to eat' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'desperate badger digs hole' is the wordplay.
'desperate' indicates an anagram (a desperate or pathetic spelling).
'badger'+'digs'+'hole'='badgerdigshole'
'badgerdigshole' is an anagram of 'HARD-BOILED EGGS'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
