Kebab stall is cooking game (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

basketball

'game' is the definition.
(basketball game is a kind of game)

'kebab stall is cooking' is the wordplay.
'is cooking' indicates an anagram.
'kebab'+'stall'='kebabstall'
'kebabstall' is an anagram of 'BASKETBALL'.

(Other definitions for basketball that I've seen before include "Team game" , "Major US sport" , "Harlem Globetrotters' sport" , "that's contested in court" , "American game" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
