Dish of caviare one is greedy to have (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

avarice

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'have' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'dish of caviare one is greedy' is the wordplay.
'caviare' can be anagrammed to 'AVARICE'.
Though, I'm not clear how this is indicated.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for avarice that I've seen before include "Greed for gain" , "Greed, covetousness" , "A deadly sin" , "Eager desire" , "Insatiable desire for wealth" .)
