Preheat the oven to 150°C (300°F).
In a bowl, mix miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and sesame oil to form a glaze.
Season the pork belly with salt and black pepper. In a large oven-safe pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork belly until browned on all sides.
Remove pork belly and set aside. In the same pot, add garlic and ginger, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Return the pork belly to the pot. Pour the miso glaze over the pork belly and add enough water to cover the pork halfway.
Cover the pot with a lid and place it in the preheated oven. Braise for 2 hours, turning the pork halfway through, until the pork is tender.
Cook jasmine rice according to package instructions.
In a separate large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add bok choy and sauté until the edges are crispy and the stems are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the pot from the oven and place the pork belly on a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into pieces.
Simmer the braising liquid in the pot on the stovetop over medium heat for about 5 minutes until it thickens into a glaze.
Assemble the rice bowls by placing jasmine rice at the bottom, arranging slices of pork belly on top, and drizzling with the miso glaze. Serve with crispy bok choy on the side.
