Nice salad prepared to include hot element in Mexican cuisine (10)

I believe the answer is:

enchiladas

'element in mexican cuisine' is the definition.
(enchilada is a type of tortilla)

'nice salad prepared to include hot' is the wordplay.
'prepared' indicates an anagram.
'to include' is an insertion indicator.
'hot' becomes 'h' (abbreviation eg on taps).
'nice'+'salad'='nicesalad'
'nicesalad' anagrammed gives 'enciladas'.
'enciladas' going around 'h' is 'ENCHILADAS'.

(Another definition for enchiladas that I've seen is " Food from Mexico".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
