Perhaps relish crisis (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pickle

This clue is a double definition.

'perhaps relish' is the first definition.
(pickle is a type of relish or dip)

'crisis' is the second definition.
(pickle can mean a difficulty or crisis)

(Other definitions for pickle that I've seen before include "Preserved vegetable of informal plight" , "Steep - predicament" , "Mischief-maker" , "Relish; tricky situation" , "Preserve in brine or vinegar" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
