Fideos
a la Cueva
What
is Fideos? Fideos is pasta, eaten regularly throughout the
Mediterranean and very popular in Spain, particularly Andalucia.
The short thin noodles are always cooked in a sauce and
can be used in a variety of Spanish dishes including meat,
fish and many types of soup. For this recipe we have used
boneless pork accompanied by garlic, tomatoes with the addition
of smoked paprika for that lovely earthy flavour. Serve
in bowls for a warming winter lunch or on small plates with
bread for tapas.
