Whittled (down) (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pared

'whittled down' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pared that I've seen before include "Peeled the outer surface" , "Trimmed - peeled" , "Did prune" , "Of a fruit, peeled" , "Cut bit by bit" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
