Only one side is quite as it should be (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

just right

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'quite as it should be' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'only one side' is the wordplay.
'only' becomes 'just' (synonyms).
'one side' becomes 'right' (I've seen this before).
'just'+'right'='JUST RIGHT'

'is' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for just right that I've seen before include "Exactly what was required" , "Perfect" .)
