Cloned fish used in baked dish? On the contrary (6)
I believe the answer is:
copied
'cloned' is the definition.
(a clone is a copy of something)
'fish used in baked dish? on the contrary' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'dish?' could be 'pie' (I've seen this before) and 'pie' is present in the answer.
'fish' could be 'cod' (type of fish) and 'cod' is located in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for copied that I've seen before include "Imitated, reproduced" , "Reproduced (something)" , "most sincerely flattered" , "Imitated or replicated" , "Imitated or recreated" .)
