dish

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

'plate' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for dish that I've seen before include "Kitchen container" , "Attractive person" , "Recipe; kitchen item" , "Food container; aerial" , "Spoil" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
