Pared (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peeled

'pared' is the definition.
('peel' can be a synonym of 'pare')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for peeled that I've seen before include "Took the skin off" , "Stripped the rind" , "Stripped the skin off" , "Of fruit, skinned" , "Removed skin as from potato" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and the Canadiana.
