Cheese brought over in three napkins (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

paneer

'cheese' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'over in three napkins' is the wordplay.
'over' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'reenap' is hidden in the letters of 'three napkins'.
'reenap' back-to-front is 'PANEER'.

'brought' acts as a link.

(Another definition for paneer that I've seen is " Cheese".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
