Good person on perilous north face will find something to eat (6,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

french toast

'something to eat' is the definition.
(French toast is an example)

'good person on perilous north face' is the wordplay.
'good person' becomes 'st' (saint).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'perilous' indicates anagramming the letters (the original letter order is in danger or peril).
'north'+'face'='northface'
'northface' anagrammed gives 'frenchtoa'.
'st' put after 'frenchtoa' is 'FRENCH TOAST'.

'will find' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for french toast that I've seen before include "Bread fried with egg and milk" , "fried breakfast?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
