Broken Easter egg put aside (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

segregate

'put aside' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'broken easter egg' is the wordplay.
'broken' is an anagram indicator.
'easter'+'egg'='easteregg'
'easteregg' anagrammed gives 'SEGREGATE'.

(Other definitions for segregate that I've seen before include "Isolate with Easter Egg" , "set apart from others" , "Seperate from Easter egg" , "Isolate, separate" , "Separate by race or religion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
