Oval dish (7)
(Other definitions for platter that I've seen before include "main course" , "pop record" , "old record?" , "Large flat serving dish" , "Shallow serving dish" .)
'oval dish' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
This is the entire clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
