Normal bargain for root vegetable (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

parsnip

'for root vegetable' is the definition.
(parsnip is a kind of root vegetable)

'normal bargain' is the wordplay.
'normal' becomes 'par' (I've seen this in another clue).
'bargain' becomes 'snip' (slang term for a good deal).
'par'+'snip'='PARSNIP'

(Other definitions for parsnip that I've seen before include "Yellow root vegetable" , "Plant with edible white root" , "Type of root veg" , "Pale carrot-like vegetable" , "Spar pin (anag) - vegetable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
