Daughter avoids open car, day being very hot (7)
I believe the answer is:
roaster
'daughter' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for roaster that I've seen before include "A resort (anag.)" , "Oven chicken?" , "hot day" , "cooker" , "Fowl for the oven" .)
