Coin made from puree, perhaps (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rupee

'coin' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Indian coin' mean 'rupee' so perhaps 'coin' could also mean 'rupee')

'puree perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates anagramming the letters.
'puree' anagrammed gives 'RUPEE'.

'made from' is the link.

(Other definitions for rupee that I've seen before include "Indian currency unit" , "Indian monetary unit" , "India's currency" , "available without capital holds up" , "Indian rhino" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
