Suffer tucking into certain curries? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

incur

'suffer' is the definition.
(to incur is to suffer or experience)

'tucking into certain curries?' is the wordplay.
'tucking into' indicates a hidden word (I've seen 'tucked into' mean this).
'INCUR' is hidden in the letters of 'certain curries'.

(Other definitions for incur that I've seen before include "Meet" , "Become subject to (something unwelcome)" , "Fall into - invite" , "Lay oneself open to" , "Fall liable to" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
