Sycophant ordered crepe (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

creep

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

'ordered crepe' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates anagramming the letters.
'crepe' anagrammed gives 'CREEP'.

(Other definitions for creep that I've seen before include "Tiptoe" , "Move with stealth" , "worm" , "Walk slowly, silently" , "jerk?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
