Indian fried bread and brown, clean liver (7)
I believe the answer is:
puritan
'clean liver' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'indian fried bread and brown' is the wordplay.
'indian fried bread' becomes 'puri' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'brown' becomes 'tan' (tan is a kind of brown).
'puri'+'tan'='PURITAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for puritan that I've seen before include "Person of extremely strict morals" , "Strait-laced" , "Adherent ot strict religous principles, opposed to sensual pleasures" , "Dour Protestant" , "One forgoing pleasure" .)
