'you've got something tasty' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'mix egg in right' is the wordplay.
'mix' indicates anagramming the letters.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'egg'+'in'='eggin'
'eggin' is an anagram of 'ginge'.
'ginge'+'r'='GINGER'

'and' is the link.
