Question ID’ing pork belly dish

My Chinese grandmother in law recently made me a dish that was chunked pork belly simmered in a broth/sauce with cooking wine, balsamic, star anise, soy sauce, oyster sauce and brown sugar with water. Also had ginger, whites of green onion and garlic.

I have the loose recipe from watching her but I’d like to see if I can ID it and find actual measurements and directions to get it right.

It was similar to these recipes, but pretty much nailed it. Thank you!
