'dish' is the definition.
(type of meal or dish)

'small in homage to penny' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'in homage' becomes 'ala' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'to penny' becomes 'd' (abbreviation e.g. Lsd - pounds, shillings, pence).
's'+'ala'+'d'='SALAD'

'made' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for salad that I've seen before include "Cold dish of raw vegetables" , "Raw greens, mainly" , "Cold dish of vegetables or fruits" , "A dish of lettuce and vegetables" , "one gets dressed" .)
