Entitled man bowled over by fish made into breaded patty (7)

I believe the answer is:

rissole

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'into breaded patty' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'entitled man bowled over by fish' is the wordplay.
'entitled man' becomes 'sir' (sir is a kind of man. I am not sure about the 'entitled' bit.).
'bowled over' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'fish' becomes 'sole' (sole is a kind of fish).
'sir' written backwards gives 'ris'.
'ris'+'sole'='RISSOLE'

'made' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rissole that I've seen before include "Croquette" , "Meat product" , "Fried ball of minced food" , "Compressed meat and spices in breadcrumbs, fried" , "faggot" .)
