Set eyes on article in stew (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seethe

'stew' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'set eyes on article' is the wordplay.
'set eyes on' becomes 'see' (I've seen this in another clue).
'article' becomes 'the' (the definite article in English).
'see'+'the'='SEETHE'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for seethe that I've seen before include "Barely contain one's anger" , "(Of liquid) move as if boiling" , "Boil; be intensely angry" , "Of water, bubble or surge as in boiling" , "'Boil, with anger perhaps (6)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
