Like current by a small part of Turkey (9)
I believe the answer is:
asiaminor
'turkey' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'like current by a small' is the wordplay.
'like' becomes 'as'.
'current' becomes 'I' (symbol for electric current).
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'small' becomes 'minor' (similar in meaning).
'as'+'i'+'a'+'minor'='ASIAMINOR'
'part of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
