  What would be a good substitute for the chipolte paste? Can't find it anywhere!

  You can get it in big Waitrose in Mexican section It gives the dish very unique hot smoky flavour. You can substitute with other spice, but this will be a different dish then.

  RR - You could try smoked paprika which should be easier to get. It gives a smoky flavour and its got a good kick to it. Tabasco do a chipolte sauce as well, in the same style bottle as tabasco sauce which you could prob get in a big supermarket if you can't find any paste.

  I was short on time so did a deconstructed version. I added sweetcorn. I will make this again, properly next time, my toddlers wolfed it down.
