There is an extra letter generated by wordplay (think it's H):

It's wrong leaving mixed antipasti in shallow pan (5)

?A?IN

[donny48]

basin

[Neveracrossword]

Patin(a). Take Sin,wrong,out of Antipasti.

[British_Olympics]

How does that fit with mixed antipasti ?

Neveracrossword has it, though 'sin' leaving doesn't quite work -

Patin(a) (alt sp of 'paten') - anag 'antipa(sti)' - anag 'its', leaving

[Neveracrossword]

My parsing was very hurried- and wrong! - but I didn't want Basin to remain

[Neveracrossword]

... and I forgot to thank Lie-in King for coming up with the correct reasoning. Thanks!

The H is from 26 down:

Conductor in cells because of head-on crash (5)

Anagram of head-on = ANODE + H

Don't like the anagram indicator particularly, should really be crashing

Thanks everyone !

[Neveracrossword]

Glad my answer was correct, even if the parsing wasn't!
