- Add cold water to a pot, enough to cover pork. Cut pork into preferred size (1.5 in cube) Add shaoxing wine (about 1/2 cup), ginger (about 1 inch knob and sliced), green onion (1 stalk). Boil and skim off foam. Remove pork and discard water..
- Wash pork in hot /warm water to remove any foam..
- Make caramel (can use caramel coloring soy sauce to replace this step) Add small amount of oil to work, add sugar (about 3 tbsp). Keep stirring while heating up, until sugar melts and the will turn into caramel fairly quickly. Add pork to coat the caramel on pork. (Watch for oil splatter).
- Add one star anise, 1 in piece of cinnamon, about 1-2 tsp Sichuan peppercorn, 1 bay leaf, 2 in knob of ginger (sliced), 2-3 stalks of green onion and white pepper. Stir until fragrant, then add soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and shaoxing wine, and enough water to cover pork..

- Put everything in pressure cooker and cook on high for 35 minutes. Quick release pressure..
- Remove all pork and sieve through the braising liquid to remove all spices and ginger/green onions..
- Put pork and braising liquid to wok, high heat to reduce the liquid to a thicker sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste (mostly needs more sugar. There should be plenty of salt in fish sauce and soy sauce).
