Inside found hot, in loincloth (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dhoti

'loincloth' is the definition.
(dhoti is a kind of loincloth)

'inside found hot in' is the wordplay.
'inside' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'DHOTI' can be found hidden inside 'found hot in'.

(Other definitions for dhoti that I've seen before include "Loin cloth" , "Hindu loincloth" , "pants in Goa?" , "Cloth round middle" , "Lean over; end of loaf" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
