Note in which way mine turned into a dish (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chow mein

'a dish' is the definition.
(chow mein is a kind of dish)

'note in which way mine turned' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'c' (musical note).
'in which way' becomes 'how' (I've seen this in another clue).
'turned' indicates anagramming the letters.
'mine' is an anagram of 'mein'.
'c'+'how'+'mein'='CHOW-MEIN'

'into' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for chow mein that I've seen before include "Hi cowmen, fancy a Chinese dish?" , "Chinese-style dish of shredded meat(s) and fried noodles" , "Chinese food" , "take-away food" , "'Chinese dish with fried noodles (4,4)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
