Spanish home cooking is all about simple, bold flavours that, when combined, bring out the best of each ingredient. These pork chops with sherry-braised leeks are a case in point: the slow-cooked leeks absorb the flavours of the sherry, chicken stock, smoky pimentón and garlic, and in the process soften and develop a sweet, mellow richness, while the golden-crusted chops, finished with a hint of thyme, bring an earthy, rustic and deeply satisfying warmth to proceedings.
