Burn lightly (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

singe

'burn lightly' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for singe that I've seen before include "Result of burning" , "Lightly burn" , "Burn slightly on surface" , "superficial injury" , "Result of match accident" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
