Spaghetti or macaroni (5)
I believe the answer is:
pasta
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'spaghetti' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'macaroni' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for pasta that I've seen before include "Course of Italian" , "dish of food" , "Basis for serving" , "Fusilli, penne etc" , "Spaghetti, orzo etc" .)
