Foster (7)

I think it could be either:

nurture

nourish

'foster' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for nourish that I've seen before include "Feed, nurture" , "Provide with sustenance for growth" , "Feed - encourage to develop" , "Nurture, sustain" , "Foster or cherish, often with food" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the Evening Standard, The Independent, The Telegraph, The Sun and the King Feature Syndicate.
