Wrong way to fill pastry, following one’s own path (3-5)
I believe the answer is:
off-piste
'one's own path' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'wrong way to fill pastry' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'wrong' could be 'off' (off can mean wrong or unacceptable) and 'off' is found in the answer.
'way' could be 'st' (abbreviation for street) and 'st' is located in the answer.
'pastry' could be 'pie' (pie is a kind of pastry) and 'pie' is found within the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'following' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for off-piste that I've seen before include "Away from the regular runs in skiing" , "On unauthorised ski slope" , "Away from prepared ski runs" .)
