Italian dish stir too slapdash (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

risotto

'italian dish' is the definition.
(type of Italian meal)

'stir too slapdash' is the wordplay.
'slapdash' indicates anagramming the letters (a slapdash spelling).
'stir'+'too'='stirtoo'
'stirtoo' anagrammed gives 'RISOTTO'.

(Other definitions for risotto that I've seen before include "scoff" , "Perhaps Italian" , "Italian dish cooked with broth" , "Italian food" , "F" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
