Father calls for the shaved off bits (7)
I believe the answer is:
parings
'the shaved off bits' is the definition.
'father calls' is the wordplay.
'father' becomes 'pa' (pa is a kind of father).
'calls' becomes 'rings' ('ring' can be a synonym of 'call').
'pa'+'rings'='PARINGS'
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
