Crossword Genius

Madras recipe causes exciting events (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dramas

'exciting events' is the definition.

'madras recipe' is the wordplay.
'recipe' indicates anagramming the letters.
'madras' anagrammed gives 'DRAMAS'.

'causes' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for dramas that I've seen before include "sensations" , "works" , "crises" , "Tragic situations" , "Theatrical plays" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
