Spirit shown by tipsy chef? (6)
I believe the answer is:
psyche
'spirit' is the definition.
(psyche can mean spirit or soul)
'shown by tipsy chef?' is the wordplay.
'shown by' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'PSYCHE' can be found hidden inside 'tipsy chef'.
(Other definitions for psyche that I've seen before include "The beloved of Eros" , "Human faculty for thought - Cupid's lover" , "The soul, spirit or mind" , "Soul, spirit; lover of Cupid" , "Human soul or spirit" .)
