Tea includes some butter and bread (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chapati

'bread' is the definition.
(chapati is a kind of bread)

'tea includes some butter' is the wordplay.
'tea' becomes 'chai' (I've seen this before).
'includes' is an insertion indicator.
'some butter' becomes 'pat' (a pat can mean a lump of butter).
'chai' enclosing 'pat' is 'CHAPATI'.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for chapati that I've seen before include "Indian food" , "Piece of bread (Indian)" , "Sort of bread" , "I may be taken in with Indian" , "Unleavened bread of India" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
