Warship offering free curries (7)
I believe the answer is:
cruiser
'warship' is the definition.
(cruiser is a kind of warship)
'free curries' is the wordplay.
'free' is an anagram indicator.
'curries' is an anagram of 'CRUISER'.
'offering' is the link.
(Other definitions for cruiser that I've seen before include "Speedy warship" , "Leisure yacht; warship" , "Relatively fast warship" , "A fast warship, sounds leisurely" , "Warship; leisure craft" .)
