Made out the cheese (4)
I believe the answer is:
edam
'cheese' is the definition.
(I know that Edam is a type of cheese)
'made out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'made' anagrammed gives 'EDAM'.
'the' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for edam that I've seen before include "Hard Dutch cheese" , "Danish cheese" , "Dutch specialty" , "Kind of cheese" , "Dairy product" .)
