Braised pork cheeks in wine sauce is a delicate yet powerful dish.
Although the meat is tender and melts on your tongue, the flavour is outstanding.
I encountered this dish on a tapas night in San Sebastian, Spain.
It’s their star dish; they no longer have to write it down on the menu board since it’s so popular.
It is served as tapas, which means a small portion.
This recipe is my take on this famous dish called Carrilleras de cerdo al vino tapa.
The trick here is to cook slow and long pork cheeks.
They are so underrated; they should be the most expensive and exquisite piece of pork, but lucky for our wallets, it’s not…
Its secret, the collagen, is a flavour bomb and, if cooked properly, gets so tender.

When I asked for it at a butcher’s shop, I got the impression that he had never sold cheeks before.
But he had some in the fridge, minus the skin, so I took a couple.
