"Tartare" (3)
I believe the answer is:
raw
'tartare' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for raw that I've seen before include "Unprocessed" , "Uncooked; immature" , "Untried (of recruit) - uncooked (of meat)" , "Not cooked" , "Uncooked or crude" .)
