Meagre tip (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lean

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'meagre' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'tip' is the second definition.
('lean' can be a synonym of 'tip')

(Other definitions for lean that I've seen before include "Thin; heel" , "skinny" , "What Jack Sprat's wife couldn't eat" , "Of meat, with little or no fat" , "Unproductive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Telegraph.
