Pluck out a torte or chopped zucchini? (9)
I believe the answer is:
courgette
'zucchini?' is the definition.
('courgette' can be a synonym of 'zucchini')
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for courgette that I've seen before include "Variety of marrow" , "Zucchini is its American equivalent" , "this could supply kitchen" , "Small green vegetable" , "Zuccini" .)
