Not many leave tip and settle hurriedly for dishes (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

omelettes

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

'dishes' is the definition.
(omelette is a kind of dish)

'not many leave tip and settle hurriedly' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'not' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is present in the answer.
'many' could be 'm' and 'm' is present in the answer.
'leave' could be 'let' (synonyms) and 'let' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for omelettes that I've seen before include "Dishes made with beaten eggs" , "They can't be made without breaking eggs" .)
