Food for holiday quickly produced before drama shown in instalments, say (9,6)
I believe the answer is:
breakfast cereal
'food for holiday quickly produced before drama shown in instalments say' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'holiday quickly produced before drama shown in instalments say' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'holiday' could be 'break' (break can mean a holiday or time off) and 'break' is found in the answer.
'quickly' could be 'fast' (synonyms) and 'fast' is located in the answer.
'before' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for breakfast cereal that I've seen is " dish first thing?".)
