Tolerate some of India's tandooris (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stand

'tolerate' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'some of india's tandooris' is the wordplay.
'some of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'STAND' is hidden in the letters of 'indias tandooris'.

(Other definitions for stand that I've seen before include "Raised platform; tolerate" , "Assume an upright position" , "Tolerate - resistance" , "stick" , "Pedestal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
