I transformed inedible fat, as can be recognised (12)

I believe the answer is:

identifiable

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

'can be recognised' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'i transformed inedible fat' is the wordplay.
'transformed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'inedible'+'fat'='inediblefat'
'inediblefat' is an anagram of 'dentifiable'.
'i'+'dentifiable'='IDENTIFIABLE'

'as' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for identifiable that I've seen is " Recognisable".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
