--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  7      oz            Can chipotle chiles
                       - en adobo
  2      tb            Corn oil
  3      cl            Garlic
  2      ts            Ground coriander
  1      ts            Thyme
  1      ts            Freshly ground black pepper

In a food processor, combine all the ingredients and process until
blended but still slightly chunky, about 1 minute. The paste can
refrigerated, tightly covered, for up to 3 weeks.

Building Block: By blending canned chipotle chilies in adobo with a
few additional ingredients, you have a nearly effortless recipe for
a versatile, spicy seasoning paste.

Uses: Brush the paste on beef and pork roasts, baby back ribs,
chicken or shellfish. Mix with sour cream or mayonnzise to accompany
grilled meat, poached chicken, or baked potatoes. Add to a
vinaigrette from raw or steamed vegetables. Stir into chicken stock
along with shredded cooked chicken, chickpeas, and avocado cubes to
make a zingy soup or into shrimp or lobster stock with assorted
seafood. Mix into a simple tomato sauce to go with pasta, meatballs,
sauteed shrimp or squid, or use as the base for a stew.
