Quarrel at home making lunch (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiffin

'lunch' is the definition.
(Indian term for a meal)

'quarrel at home' is the wordplay.
'quarrel' becomes 'tiff' (informal term for an argument).
'at home' becomes 'in' (similar in meaning).
'tiff'+'in'='TIFFIN'

'making' is the link.

(Other definitions for tiffin that I've seen before include "Midday meal for members of the British Raj in India" , "Light (Indian) meal" , "(Anglo Indian) lunch" , "Light midday meal in India" , "Indian midday meal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
