teammate

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

'fellow player' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'cooked meat more than once' is the wordplay.
'cooked' is an anagram indicator (letters cooked into a new form).
'more than once' becomes 'mate' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'meat' is an anagram of 'team'.
'team'+'mate'='TEAMMATE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for teammate that I've seen is " fellow player".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
