Shred the cabbage, julienne the carrots, and slice the spring onions.
Whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce and mirin to make the sauce.

Add the carrots and cabbage and stir-fry for 3 minutes, checking a slice of pork reaches 63°C with a meat thermometer.
Add the udon noodles and beansprouts and stir-fry for 3 minutes, breaking up the noodles as they heat through.
Pour in the sauce and sesame oil and toss for 2 minutes until glossy.
Divide between plates, scatter with spring onion and bonito flakes, and serve.
