Can someone with intimate knowledge of the language break down this phrase "何食べたら大きくれるの"


I know the meaning of this, but I want to understand the structure of it like
the grammar/or conjugation used to get that meaning.




I might have incomplete knowledge of slang or dialects or something, but I'm
very confident this is a typo. As mentioned in comments, it looks like it
should be “何食べたら大きく **な** れるの”, meaning roughly "what should I eat to get
big(ger)?"

I've been living in Japan for a while, and I've never heard a construction
like the one you posted, without な. れる by itself is not a word that I know of.
