Italian dish on plate that's broken (7)
I believe the answer is:
polenta
'italian dish' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'on plate that's broken' is the wordplay.
'that's broken' indicates an anagram.
'on'+'plate'='onplate'
'onplate' with letters rearranged gives 'POLENTA'.
(Other definitions for polenta that I've seen before include "thick mush" , "Cornmeal -- on plate (anag)" , "Lepanto (anag.)" , "Friulian foodstuff" , "Cooked meal" .)
