Turnip; a Scandinavian (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

swede

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'turnip' is the first definition.
(I know that turnip can be written as swede)

'a scandinavian' is the second definition.
(Sweden is in Scandinavia)

(Other definitions for swede that I've seen before include "North European" , "plant" , "Man from Malmo" , "Large root vegetable" , "Weeds out to get turnip" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
