Basil sauce (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pesto

'basil sauce' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pesto that I've seen before include "Italian sauce containing basil" , "Saucy work" , "Sauce of basil, pine nuts and garlic" , "Basic sauce" , "Pasta sauce mainly of basil and cheese" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Independent, The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, the LA Times and The Sun.
