Crossword Genius

Move quickly, getting second spicy dish (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scurry

'move quickly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'second spicy dish' is the wordplay.
'second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'spicy dish' becomes 'curry' (I've seen this before).
's'+'curry'='SCURRY'

'getting' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for scurry that I've seen before include "Scamper" , "short horse race" , "Move hurriedly" , "Move quickly" , "Dash (like a mouse?)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
