Crossword Genius

Sausage meat -- dollar spent (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mortadella

'sausage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'meat dollar spent' is the wordplay.
'spent' indicates an anagram.
'meat'+'dollar'='meatdollar'
'meatdollar' anagrammed gives 'MORTADELLA'.

(Another definition for mortadella that I've seen is " Sausage".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
