Substitute (6)

Ross

'substitute' is the definition.
(I know that ersatz is a type of substitute)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ersatz that I've seen before include "Artificial, imitation - from German" , "Mock" , "Inferior substitute" , "Artificial or inferior imitation" , "Not real or genuine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Telegraph.
