Breakfast dish, say, with scent I'd beg to be cooked (4,8)
I believe the answer is:
eggs benedict
'breakfast dish' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'say with scent i'd beg to be cooked' is the wordplay.
'say' becomes 'eg'.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'to be cooked' is an anagram indicator.
'scent'+'id'+'beg'='scentidbeg'
'scentidbeg' anagrammed gives 'gsbenedict'.
'eg'+'gsbenedict'='EGGS BENEDICT'
(Other definitions for eggs benedict that I've seen before include "Breakfast dish with hollandaise sauce" , "something for breakfast?" , "Dish served on toast" , "food" , "Dish with ham on toast" .)
