Pudding to have quietly, at leisure (5)
I believe the answer is:
pease
'pudding' is the definition.
(pease pudding is a kind of pudding)
'quietly at leisure' is the wordplay.
'quietly' becomes 'p' (musical symbol).
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'leisure' becomes 'ease' (I've seen this before).
'p'+'ease'='PEASE'
'to have' is the link.
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
