Hobbit-hater in for curry (3)

I believe the answer is:

orc

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

'hobbit-hater' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'in for curry' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ORC' can be found hidden inside 'for curry'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for orc that I've seen before include "Sea monster; or Tolkien character" , "Tolkienian monster" , "Tolkien ogre" , "Tolkien goblin" , "Fairytale monster" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
