This clue could be a double definition.

'one thing to do' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.

'eggs in the kitchen?' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'with' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hatch that I've seen before include "Incubate - plan" , "Sit on eggs" , "Movable cover on ship's deck - batten it down" , "Of young bird or fish, emerge from egg" , "Mountain goat" .)
