Fine god’s vegetable (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

okra

'vegetable' is the definition.
(okra is a kind of vegetable)

'fine god's' is the wordplay.
'fine' becomes 'ok' (synonyms).
'god' becomes 'Ra' (Egyptian god).
'ok'+'ra'='OKRA'

(Other definitions for okra that I've seen before include "Bhindi, gumbo or ladies' fingers" , "Long green tropical vegetable" , "vegetable dish" , "old ladies' fingers" , "Tropical plant with edible pods" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
