Dried rose cooked as an addition to main course (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
side order
'an addition to main course' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'dried rose cooked' is the wordplay.
'cooked' is an anagram indicator (letters cooked into a new form).
'dried'+'rose'='driedrose'
'driedrose' with letters rearranged gives 'SIDE ORDER'.
'as' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for side order that I've seen is " dish".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
