Dish with zip and zing primarily — and flair (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pizzazz

'flair' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'dish with zip and zing primarily' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'dish' could be 'pizza' (pizza is a kind of dish) and 'pizza' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for pizzazz that I've seen before include "Dynamism, oomph" , "lively style" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
