Girl, coy and attractive (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dishy

'attractive' is the definition.
('dishy' can be similar in meaning to 'attractive')

'girl coy' is the wordplay.
'girl' becomes 'di' (**).
'coy' becomes 'shy' (I've seen this before).
'di'+'shy'='DISHY'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for dishy that I've seen before include "Good-looking (informal)" , "Gorgeous" , "Fair" , "Attractive" , "Informally good-looking, like plate?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
