Cryptic food and drink

[Morning Glory]

I think its your turn. @SatNavSaysStraightOn is lagging... but I'm bored!

Actually, I'm seriously bored. Have been playing chess against my computer. Won mostly - but I'm only on 'computer thinks 3 moves ahead'. After that it says 'computer thinks 1 second ahead or 3 seconds ahead'. I don't really understand that. I'd prefer it to think in moves like I do!

Good with curry... a bit sweet for me. I prefer lime.

@SatNavSaysStraightOn, this is an easy one!

Fish paste, oddly, seems enthralling. (10,6)

Heartening smells are decidedly fishy!

Its only easy because you said curry!

Apologies for being quiet but I have rather a lot of family events that happen over Christmas week so tend to be quiet online! By which I mean birthdays and wedding anniversaries in addition to the the usual stuff, so this week is anything but quiet. We even get one day with 2 birthdays on it, yet to come.

Hooray! You don't realise how far you have come! You wouldn't have been able to solve this a few weeks go!

Good one! I think @SatNavSaysStraightOn could have trouble with this one. I suspect that as she hadn't come across kedgeree she might not have come across this either.

Here's a fairly easy one (really) from today's Azed.

Eel, new in, served with a cheesy sauce. (6)

Don't quite understand why it says 'served with'. I presume that's allowed as an anagram indicator?

Ha that is funny Morning Glory, I once beat the computer in chess, but the only reason I did was that I mirrored it's moves. Left to my own devices, I am sure that wouldn't have happened! It is fun to brag about though. Cryptic food would be Luetfishe lye bathed fish sealed and put in the ground for a year..I am told they eat it in Minnesota...is a delicacy supposedly...not for this gal!.

An easy one too, but I like the economy!

By a strange quirk, I had thought of this one:

Unreasonably keep duck locked up at teatime. (5)
