Cooked sausage to satisfy (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

assuage

'satisfy' is the definition.
(I know that assuage is a kind of satisfy)

'cooked sausage' is the wordplay.
'cooked' is an anagram indicator (letters cooked into a new form).
'sausage' is an anagram of 'ASSUAGE'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for assuage that I've seen before include "Sausage (anag.)" , "Soothe, make less severe" , "Make less severe, pain or hunger, say" , "Satisfy (a desire)" , "Ease or relieve, say thirst" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
