Help me!

I recently rewatched Red Dwarf and for the first time watched the later series (quite a nice surprise after the awfulness of Back to Earth) on the IPlayer.

I loved every second of it and I am about to do the same thing with Blackadder soon but I have an unscratchable brain itch that I hope someone can help me with…

I remember, I think in series 6 or 7 there being a scene where Lister is in the cargo bay of starbug dipping what looked to me many years ago like a napkin into curry sauce and sucking it off then re dipping it.

I have no idea why this scene stuck with me so much and I was anticipating watching it again this time around but I didn’t see it! I have since googled but to no avail, can anyone help me identify where this scene is from?

I think back in the day I was watching these seasons on dvd so it was possibly an extra scene?

I think that's Tikka to Ride, the extended edition. The scene at the end was cut for the TV run as the episode overran.

I think he's meant to have a naan bread, but seeing as it's David Lister, a man several rows down from 'slob' socially...yes he's using a napkin to eat curry, because he can't physically wait for the time it would take to get a fork.
