Edible mushroom (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

morel

'edible mushroom' is the definition.
(I know that morel is a type of edible mushroom)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for morel that I've seen before include "One has a cap" , "Edible mushroom" , "Type of mushroom" , "Edible fungus" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and The Guardian.
