Pasta heaps with last of Parmesan topping (7)
I believe the answer is:
noodles
'pasta' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'heaps with last of parmesan topping' is the wordplay.
'heaps with' becomes 'oodles' ('oodles' can be a synonym of 'heaps'. I am not sure about the 'with' bit.**).
'last of' says to take the final letters.
'topping' says to put letters next to each other.
The final letter of 'parmesan' is 'n'.
'oodles' after 'n' is 'NOODLES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noodles that I've seen before include "Thin strips of pasta for old ones" , "On instrument casually plays" , "idiots!" , "Narrow strips of pasta, or slang heads" , "Far Eastern food" .)
