Went wrong when serving cooked tofu with old feta (11)
I believe the answer is:
footfaulted
'went wrong' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are past participle verbs.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'cooked tofu with old feta' is the wordplay.
'cooked' indicates anagramming the letters (letters cooked into a new form).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'old'+'feta'='oldfeta'
'tofu' put after 'oldfeta' is 'oldfetatofu'.
'oldfetatofu' is an anagram of 'FOOTFAULTED'.
'when serving' is the link.
