Tucking into stegt flæsk, say, a north Scandinavian (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

danish

'scandinavian' is the definition.
(Danish is an example)

'tucking into stegt flaesk say a north' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'dish' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

(Other definitions for danish that I've seen before include "Relating to one from Copenhagen, say" , "Scandinavian language" , "Dash in to the mysterious nationality" , "Scandinavian, pastry perhaps" , "_ blue; type of cheese" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
