Pure recipe with new dried plum (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

prune

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

'pure recipe with new' is the wordplay.
'recipe with' indicates an anagram.
'new' becomes 'n'.
'pure' mixed up with 'n' can make 'PRUNE'.

(Other definitions for prune that I've seen before include "Shrivelled fruit" , "Trim (tree); dried plum" , "Dull person" , "Cut back the dried plum" , "Trim - dried fruit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
