Dish carried by Esau ceremoniously (6)
I believe the answer is:
saucer
'dish' is the definition.
(saucer is a kind of dish)
'carried by esau ceremoniously' is the wordplay.
'carried by' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'SAUCER' can be found hidden inside 'esau ceremoniously'.
(Other definitions for saucer that I've seen before include "Item of crockery" , "less than a plate?" , "alien craft?" , "part of the service" , "Part of a tea set" .)
