Starting Clue Chain 8 - all welcome 😊

The idea of the game is that the setter poses an original home-made clue which everybody is invited to solve.  The poster who solves the clue first (hopefully identified by the setter) is then invited to post their own original clue, easy or cryptic.  If nobody has answered the clue within 30 minutes, the setter should post a further hint and so on until the clue is solved.

Clue: 

Pass student is leading to a charged particle crash (9)

Thanks, I think you're right Patsy, so I won't continue.

I'm back!   Sorry that answer is incorrect - "down under" does not refer to Oz.  For one part ... what do you follow for cooking instructions?

Question Author

recipe - but I've flogged that to death and can't get anything out of it.

It's an anagram of recipe and a bribe ... a ??? to Cerberus.

Cerberus was the many-headed dog guarding the gates to Hell, but I still can't get anywhere with it - the brain is a bit dimmed today. Never mind, someone else will no doubt be better guided by your clues 😊  😊  😊  😊  😊  😊  

... but I'll still keep thinking on it . . . . . .

There is a saying about a bribe which is "a ??? to Cerberus"

That answer and recipe will give the answer, hopefully 😊
