Method

In a bowl, combine the mirin, soy sauce, garlic and ginger. Add chicken strips then set aside to marinate. Meanwhile, make the slaw. In a separate bowl, mix wasabi, oil, lemon juice and soy, until the wasabi has dissolved. Add carrot, radish and most of the spring onions (reserving some to garnish); toss. Scatter cornflour on a large plate, add chicken strips and turn to coat. Heat oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in batches for three to four minutes, turning until cooked through and crisp. Drain on kitchen paper. Scatter over the remaining spring onions and serve with the slaw.
