Four eggs would be too much for him (3)
I believe the answer is:
reg
'him' is the definition.
'four eggs would be too much' is the wordplay.
'be too much' indicates a hidden word (the clue hides the answer plus unneeded letters).
'REG' is hidden within 'four eggs would'.
'for' is the link.
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
