Deprive of water (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

parch

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">deprive of water</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for parch that I've seen before include "Get overheated" , "Scorch" , "Dehydrate" , "Make dry through heat" , "Make hot and dry" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
