1. Cook the noodles until just tender, following the directions on the packet. Drain, rinse under cold water and drain again. Blanch the carrot in boiling water for 1 minute, then drain.
2. Spoon the noodles and carrot chunks into a large saucepan or flameproof casserole, and arrange the chicken breasts or thighs, prawns, Chinese cabbage leaves, mushrooms and mange-touts on top.
3. Bring the stock to the boil in a saucepan. Add the mirin and enough soy sauce to taste. Pour the stock over the noodles. Cover the pan or casserole, bring to the boil over a moderate heat, then simmer gently for 5 - 6 minutes until all the ingredients are cooked.
4. Serve with chopped spring onions, grated ginger, lemon wedges and a little soy sauce.
