Chipotle salmon with bean salsa
Chipotle comes from the word chilpoctli, meaning 'smoked chilli', and is the primary chilli used in Mexican-inspired cuisine. It gives a wonderfully rich, earthy taste to the salmon but can also be added to salsa, stews and combined with other spices to make marinades.

Try this with meat - spread the chipotle paste onto chicken breasts or joints before roasting or stir-frying. Mix into ketchup or mayonnaise as a dip too.
