Her veal needs cooking in port (2,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

le havre

'port' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'her veal needs cooking' is the wordplay.
'needs cooking' indicates anagramming the letters.
'her'+'veal'='herveal'
'herveal' with letters rearranged gives 'LE HAVRE'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for le havre that I've seen before include "French Channel port" , "Port in Normandy" , "Port city of northern France" , "Northern French port" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
