Crossword Genius

Fair enough concealing intense anger (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ire

'intense anger' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'fair enough concealing' is the wordplay.
'concealing' indicates a hidden word.
'IRE' is hidden in the letters of 'fair enough'.

(Other definitions for ire that I've seen before include "resentment" , "Anger, annoyance" , "heat" , "Displeasure" , "Fury" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
