This clue could be a double definition.

'in hearing condemn easyjet's top italian' is the first definition.
I know that 'italian' relates to this answer.

'fare' is the second definition.
(I have seen 'Starchy food' mean 'gnocchi' so perhaps 'food' could also mean 'gnocchi')

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gnocchi that I've seen before include "Flour, semolina or potato dumplings" , "starters!" , "2 [PASTA]" , "A course in Rome" , "Italian dumpling made of potato, flour or semolina" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
