Steps:
- In a sturdy Dutch oven, brown the pork evenly in the oil over medium-high heat. Add the liquids and reduce the heat to maintain a slow simmer. Add the ginger and leeks or scallions, salt, peppercorns, and partially cover the pot.
- Braise the pork, turning it occasionally, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add more water when necessary to make sure the meat is at least half covered by liquid throughout the cooking. Remove the meat and slice it. For paper-thin slices, wait until the meat has cooled to room temperature, then chill it an hour before cutting. Strain the braising liquid and discard all solids before using.
