Jelly, equally still (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aspic

'jelly' is the definition.
(I know that aspic is a type of jelly)

'equally still' is the wordplay.
'equally' becomes 'as' (synonyms).
'still' becomes 'pic' (short for picture).
'as'+'pic'='ASPIC'

(Other definitions for aspic that I've seen before include "Stock set with food" , "Ending of Marlowe's thriller" , "Jelly based on fish or meat stock" , "Jelly made with fish or meat stock" , "Savoury jelly for coating meat, eggs etc" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
