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.

  4. 4

    Add the rinsed and drained porcini mushrooms, mix, and cook for another couple of minutes.

  6. 6

    Pour in the hot water, add the seasoning mix and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes.

Me gusta cocinar, aprender, improvisar con lo que tengo en la nevera, probar nuevas recetas, y me encanta disfrutar con el resultado.Gracias a Cookpad y sus retos, me siento más motivada en la cocina y en la creación de nuevos platos, aunque básicamente me gusta preparar recetas sencillas y con ingredientes que podemos tener en casa en el día a día.Soy valenciana, de sangre "100% granaína", pero me encanta la gastronomía de cualquier sitio, ya sea de mi país o de cualquier otro.Espero que os gusten mis recetas, y si os atrevéis a probar alguna, me encantará ver vuestras cooksnaps.
