Crossword Genius

See cinders put out (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

discern

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

'cinders put out' is the wordplay.
'put out' is an anagram indicator.
'cinders' anagrammed gives 'DISCERN'.

(Other definitions for discern that I've seen before include "Recognise, find out" , "Cinders (anag)" , "Pick out" , "Notice" , "Perceive - distinguish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
