Porridge ingredient appears wrong to a male (7)
I believe the answer is:
oatmeal
'porridge ingredient' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'wrong to a male' is the wordplay.
'wrong' indicates an anagram.
'to'+'a'+'male'='toamale'
'toamale' is an anagram of 'OATMEAL'.
'appears' is the link.
(Other definitions for oatmeal that I've seen before include "Pale variegated brown colour" , "Eat loam (anag)" , "Ground cereal" , "Kind of porridge" , "Plain food" .)
