Prepared, as prunes (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stewed

'prepared as prunes' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for stewed that I've seen before include "(Meat) simmered; (tea) over-infused" , "Was long embarrassed" , "was in agitated state" , "Cooked slowly" , "Slowly boiled" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com and the Newsday.
