Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Turn off the heat. Soak rice noodles in hot water for 3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
Toss shrimp with cornstarch in a medium-sized bowl.
Heat vegetable oil in a large wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic. Saute until sizzling. Add the shrimp and cook until shrimp is pink on both sides (about 1-2 minutes each side). Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set it aside.
Raise the heat to medium-high. Add the sesame oil, carrots, cabbage and scallions to the skillet. Cook 1-2 minutes. Then add soy sauce, mirin, curry powder and red pepper flakes.
Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, moving everything around with a wooden spatula.
Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the drained noodles and shrimp, tossing until they are coated in the sauce. Serve warm.
