Perhaps from a Turkic language, see Common Turkic *aš,[1] however there seems to be an unexplained mismatch in vowel length.

Compare Azerbaijani aş, Bashkir аш (aş), Yakut ас (as).

Alternatively, inherited from Middle Persian [Term?] (/⁠āš⁠/), a hapax legomenon found in the Vendidad, although this word is claimed to be misread.[2]

Connections with Sanskrit आश (āśa, “food”) are also sometimes proposed, but the correspondance would not be regular.
