Fat girl finishing breakfast, possibly with pudding (4)
I believe the answer is:
suet
'with pudding' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'fat girl finishing breakfast' is the wordplay.
'fat girl' becomes 'sue' (girl's name. I am not sure about the 'fat' bit.).
'finishing' says to take the final letters (the letter which finishes the word).
The last letter of 'breakfast' is 't'.
'sue'+'t'='SUET'
'possibly' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for suet that I've seen before include "Hard animal fat used in cooking" , "Solid fat used in cooking" , "Hard white fat on sheep's kidneys" , "Fat used in foods" , "Edible fat used in cooking" .)
