Relish a tricky situation (6)
I believe the answer is:
pickle
This clue is a double definition.
'relish' is the first definition.
(pickle is a kind of relish)
'a tricky situation' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for pickle that I've seen before include "Lather - relish" , "A preserved vegetable or a fine mess" , "Relish, difficult situation" , "Condiment - tricky situation - troublesome child" , "Relish; preserve" .)
