Jug French and Spanish needed for meal (4-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stir-fry

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'meal' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Chinese meal ' mean 'stir fry' so perhaps 'meal' could also mean 'stir fry')

'jug french and spanish' is the wordplay.
'jug' becomes 'stir' (I've seen this before).
'french' becomes 'fr' (abbreviation).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'spanish' becomes 'y' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'stir'+'fr'+'y'='STIR-FRY'

'needed for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for stir-fry that I've seen is " Dish cooked in wok or frying pan".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
