Not OP, but I made a version of red-braised pork belly roughly following this recipe a while back with results I enjoyed. I had to make a few adaptations to the ingredients to substitute in things that were easier for me to get -- e.g. sherry instead of shaoxing wine, and just used ~1/4 cup of my regular soy sauce since I couldn't get both light and dark soy sauce -- but it was still tasty.
Looks good. Pork belly is tricky imo. Can end up too fatty and be pretty gross or sublime if a good cut and cooked / seasoned just right. I never order it unless it's at a really reputable place.
Also your plate is tripping me out. My brain cannot tell if it's convex or concave.
Ya I agree, I think mine got quite fatty haha but never the less very delicious. I had some really good pork belly from a restaurant in Chinatown when I was in bangkok for a bit and since then i was like I need to make this when I get home!!

That looks delicious! Is there a sauce on the pork?

Thank you! Sorta, I reduced the sauce quite a bit so it's saucy but not that saucy.
