Some ham, haricot beans and tongue (7)
I believe the answer is:
amharic
'tongue' is the definition.
(Amharic is an example)
'some ham haricot beans' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'AMHARIC' is hidden within 'ham haricot beans'.
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for amharic that I've seen before include "Language of Ethiopia" , "Ethiopian language" , "heard in Ethiopia" .)
