In NY a sole freshly cooked with onions (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lyonnaise

'cooked with onions' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in ny a sole freshly' is the wordplay.
'freshly' is an anagram indicator.
'in'+'ny'+'a'+'sole'='innyasole'
'innyasole' with letters rearranged gives 'LYONNAISE'.

(Other definitions for lyonnaise that I've seen before include "cooked in a way to make you cry?" , "(Of potatoes) cooked with onions in a wine sauce" , "cooking with onions" , "Served with onions" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
