Whilst I, thanks to FT, am now a fully fledged Cholula fan (I bought 20 bottles recently... they were on special offer) I did get a recent craving for a thicker sauce.

I adapted a recipe and came up with this:

4-5 dried chipotle chilis (soaked in hot water for a few minutes, then deseeded and sliced into pieces)
1 small can of plum tomatoes (not drained)
1 chopped small onion
5 sliced cloves garlic
a couple of pinches of salt

Add all the ingredients to a pan over a medium-low heat and leave to simmer for 30-40 minutes. Turn off the heat, allow to cool a little and blitz with a blender. Add cilantro and/or ground cumin if you like these - optional.

Ridiculously easy and cheap to make. Simmering chipotles smell soooo good!
