yogurt

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one might be potted' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'turn up in mongolian dwelling?' is the wordplay.
'turn' becomes 'go' (a person's move in a board game).
'up' says the letters should be written in reverse (in down clue: letters go upwards).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'mongolian dwelling?' becomes 'yurt' (I've seen this in another clue).
'go' written backwards gives 'og'.
'og' placed inside 'yurt' is 'YOGURT'.

(Other definitions for yogurt that I've seen before include "Cultural fare" , "healthy breakfast" , "A food made from curdled milk" , "dessert?" , "Dairy product made from curdled milk" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
