Cattle overturned lid for soup pan (8)
I believe the answer is:
stockpot
'soup pan' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'cattle overturned lid' is the wordplay.
'cattle' becomes 'stock' (I've seen this before).
'overturned' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'lid' becomes 'top' (eg a bottle top).
'top' reversed gives 'pot'.
'stock'+'pot'='STOCKPOT'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stockpot that I've seen before include "kitchenware" , "Utensil for making soup" , "ovenware item" , "Resource for making soup, etc" , "Slow cooking vessel" .)
