Old boy back tucking into wine and curry (8)
I believe the answer is:
vindaloo
'curry' is the definition.
(type of curry)
'old boy back tucking into wine' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'old' could be 'o' (common abbreviation eg in OE for Old English) and 'o' is located in the answer.
'boy' could be 'vin' and 'vin' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for vindaloo that I've seen before include "Curry dish -- Avon lido (anag)" , "Indian food" , "Hot dish" , "Type of hot curry" , "burner" .)
