Spaghetti or vermicelli, for example (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pasta

I believe this clue is a double definition.

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

'vermicelli for example' is the second definition.
(vermicelli is a kind of pasta)

(Other definitions for pasta that I've seen before include "Spaghetti, ziti, fusilli, for example" , "Italian dough" , "Tapas (anag)" , "Staple Italian food base" , "Fare from Italy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
