Dish, huss I cooked (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sushi

'dish' is the definition.
(sushi is a kind of dish)

'huss i cooked' is the wordplay.
'cooked' is an anagram indicator.
'huss'+'i'='hussi'
'hussi' anagrammed gives 'SUSHI'.

(Other definitions for sushi that I've seen before include "cold food" , "Japanese vinegared rice dish" , "Japanese cold rice dish" , "Asian food" , "Rice, seafood cuisine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
