Woman cuddling baby, eating a hot snack (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enchilada

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a hot snack' is the definition.
(Mexican snack)

'woman cuddling baby eating' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'woman' could be 'ada' and 'ada' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enchilada that I've seen before include "spicy titbit" , "wrap" , "hot dish" , "Tortilla and chilli dish" , "spicy food" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
