Assorted 'semolina' clues, cryptic (13)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

miscellaneous

'assorted' is the definition.
('miscellaneous' can be a synonym of 'assorted')

'semolina clues cryptic' is the wordplay.
'cryptic' is an anagram indicator.
'semolina'+'clues'='semolinaclues'
'semolinaclues' with letters rearranged gives 'MISCELLANEOUS'.

(Other definitions for miscellaneous that I've seen before include "Multifarious" , "Sundry" , "Not just one kind" , "Mixed, varied" , "Of various types" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
