Beat broth recipe (5)
I believe the answer is:
throb
'beat' is the definition.
(throb is a kind of beat)
'broth recipe' is the wordplay.
'recipe' indicates anagramming the letters.
'broth' with letters rearranged gives 'THROB'.
(Other definitions for throb that I've seen before include "Strong rhythmic beat" , "Vibrate with rhythm like heart" , "One's heart may do it" , "Beat quickly from excitement etc" , "Pound" .)
