Rush small Indian meal? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scurry

'rush' is the definition.
(I know that scurry is a type of rush)

'small indian meal?' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'indian meal?' becomes 'curry'.
's'+'curry'='SCURRY'

(Other definitions for scurry that I've seen before include "Bustle" , "Move quickly" , "Scuttle" , "short horse race" , "Move hurriedly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
