Rate main social works for Browning (14)
I believe the answer is:
caramelisation
'browning' is the definition.
(process that turns sugar brown)
'rate main social works' is the wordplay.
'works' indicates an anagram (work can mean to twist or convulse).
'rate'+'main'+'social'='ratemainsocial'
'ratemainsocial' anagrammed gives 'CARAMELISATION'.
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
