### Clue: It's a bit spicy around plate (5)
### Answer: BALTI 
 ### Explanation: It's a bit spicy around plate (5)
An envelope ('around') of L (learner driver's 'plate') in BATI, an anagram ('spicy') of 'a bit'. Since the curry is apparently named after the wok-like dish ('plate') in which it is cooked and served, the clue is an &lit (although 'around' does not fit well).
