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

'savoury snacks in mine?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'fresh posset in his car' is the wordplay.
'fresh' indicates an anagram (a fresh re-ordering of the letters).
'posset'+'in'+'his'+'car'='possetinhiscar'
'possetinhiscar' anagrammed gives 'CORNISH PASTIES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cornish pasties that I've seen before include "food items" , "regional English dishes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
