Crossword Genius

Obstruct basket (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hamper

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'obstruct' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'basket' is the second definition.
(hamper is a kind of basket)

(Other definitions for hamper that I've seen before include "Food parcel" , "Food box; impede" , "Picnic box" , "Obstruct or delay with food basket" , "Food-basket" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
