Burns the surface (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sears

'burns the surface' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sears that I've seen before include "Scorches or burns the surface of" , "Makes very hot and dry" , "Superficially burns" .)
