Crossword Genius

Anger breaks over TV chef in Maine making US trailer (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mobile home

'us trailer' is the definition.
(trailer can mean a mobile home in US English)

'anger breaks over tv chef in maine' is the wordplay.
'anger' becomes 'bile' (I've seen this in another clue).
'breaks' indicates putting letters inside.
'over' says the letters should be written backwards.
'tv chef' becomes 'Hom' (Ken Hom is a TV chef).
'in maine' becomes 'ome' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'hom' reversed gives 'moh'.
'bile' going into 'moh' is 'mobileh'.
'mobileh'+'ome'='MOBILE HOME'

'making' is the link.

(Other definitions for mobile home that I've seen before include "House on wheels?" , "Permanently-used caravan" , "Large caravan for permanent residence" , "Caravan maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
