Wonderful evening meal: one starter of prawns less (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

super

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

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for super that I've seen before include "Prefix meaning above or informally great" , "First-rate, top-notch" , "Excellent; policeman" , "Top" , "Delightful" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
