Famish (6)
I believe the answer is:
starve
'famish' is the definition.
(I know that famish can be written as starve)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for starve that I've seen before include "Die from lack of food" , "Suffer from food deprivation" , "Die of hunger" , "Go without food" , "Averts (anag)" .)
