Recoil from content of kebab, horrible (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abhor

'recoil from' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'content of kebab horrible' is the wordplay.
'content of' indicates a hidden word.
'ABHOR' can be found hidden inside 'kebab horrible'.

(Other definitions for abhor that I've seen before include "Sea between Africa and Australia" , "Hate or dislike intensely" , "Regard with repugnance" , "Detest, hate" , "can't stand" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
