Return cook’s instructions about flipping pancake right (11)
I believe the answer is:
reciprocate
'return' is the definition.
(I know this)
'cook's instructions about flipping pancake right' is the wordplay.
'cook's instructions' becomes 'recipe' (a recipe is a set of instructions for cooking).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'flipping' is a reversal indicator.
'pancake' becomes 'taco' (I've seen this before).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'taco'+'r'='tacor'
'tacor' in reverse letter order is 'rocat'.
'recipe' placed around 'rocat' is 'RECIPROCATE'.
(Other definitions for reciprocate that I've seen before include "Interchange" , "Return (love/affection)" , "Do something in return" , "Respond" , "make fair return" .)
