Record one's put on the fire (3)
I believe the answer is:
log
I believe this is a double definition.
'record' is the first definition.
(logging is a kind of recording)
'one's put on the fire' is the second definition.
(Other definitions for log that I've seen before include "Piece of wood - record" , "A ship or plane's diary" , "Record on ship" , "Listing" , "number in mathematical table" .)
