Forced to have flipping cheese (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

made

'forced' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'flipping cheese' is the wordplay.
'flipping' says the letters should be written backwards.
'cheese' becomes 'edam' (Edam is an example).
'edam' written backwards gives 'MADE'.

'to have' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for made that I've seen before include "brought about" , "Produced" , "Constructed" , "One renovating (painting)" , "Created" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
