Starts bubbling, maybe (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boils

'starts bubbling maybe' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for boils that I've seen before include "Brings water, say, to 100 degrees Celsius" , "Seethes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the LA Times and the L.A. Times Daily.
