Fideos with Pork Cheeks, Porcini Mushrooms, and Green Garlic

It's been a long time since I made fideos in a paella pan, and today I was craving them.
I bought my usual 1 kg pack of pork cheeks, and before freezing them, I set some aside for the fideos. Suddenly, I saw the dried porcini mushrooms in the pantry, and it was clear what I wanted to make. But as I was about to freeze the remaining pork cheeks, I noticed the green garlic... and another craving hit.
The result is a fantastic and very flavorful dish.
