Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat, then add the pork and brown, stirring often.
Mix together the black pepper, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, and water, and add to the browned meat.
Add the onions. Cover, reduce heat, and let simmer for about 30 minutes, until the pork is cooked through, stirring occasionally.
Add more water if necessary to prevent sticking.
