Food to bake badly, being a bonehead? (5)
I believe the answer is:
kebab
'a bonehead?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.
'food to bake badly' is the wordplay.
'food' becomes 'b' (B is an example).
'to' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'badly' is an anagram indicator.
'bake' anagrammed gives 'keba'.
'b' after 'keba' is 'KEBAB'.
'being' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kebab that I've seen before include "Shish dish" , "spiked food" , "Meat and/or vegetables cooked on skewer" , "Meat preparation" , "Food grilled on a skewer" .)
