Globule of liquid with tiny amount of food (6,3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bubble and squeak

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

'food' is the definition.
(bubble and squeak is a kind of food)

'globule of liquid with tiny amount' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'globule' could be 'bubble' (bubble is a kind of globule) and 'bubble' is present in the answer.
'with' could be 'and' and 'and' is located in the answer.
'amount' could be 's' (S is an example) and 's' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
