Squabble during lunch (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiffin

'lunch' is the definition.
(Indian term for a meal)

'squabble during' is the wordplay.
'squabble' becomes 'tiff' (synonyms).
'during' becomes 'in' (e.g. during February means in February).
'tiff'+'in'='TIFFIN'

(Other definitions for tiffin that I've seen before include "Light Indian repast" , "Snack, light meal (dated)" , "Lunch (British Raj)" , "Anglo-Indian lunch" , "Midday meal for members of the British Raj in India" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
