Juicy pork chops, potatoes and leeks lightly coated in a beer mustard sauce star in this one-pot meal.
How to clean leeks:
Leeks look like a giant scallion with broad, dark green leaves that are tightly wrapped around each other. This makes it difficult to clean the dirt from the leaves. The quickest way to clean them is to trim the root end and make 4 to 5 slits from top to bottom. Run the leaves under cold water to reach the dirt trapped between the leaf layers.

_ Any type of beer can be used.

_ } pound pork tenderloin can be used instead of boneless pork chops.
