Chopped sausage to satisfy (7)
I believe the answer is:
assuage
'satisfy' is the definition.
(I know this)
'chopped sausage' is the wordplay.
'chopped' indicates anagramming the letters (letters chopped or smashed up).
'sausage' anagrammed gives 'ASSUAGE'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for assuage that I've seen before include "Make less intense; satisfy" , "Pacify, allay" , "Satisfy (an appetite)" , "'Make less severe, pain say (7)'" , "Reduce severity" .)
