Chow mein, a beloved Chinese dish known for its versatility and delightful mix of noodles and sautéed veggies, pairs wonderfully with the rich flavors of ground beef. Mixing in aromatic ginger and garlic transforms simple ingredients into something that really sings comfort and warmth, which is perfect for a cozy family dinner on a chilly evening. Using a slow cooker for this version makes the preparation straightforward and fuss-free, which is always a bonus for busy families.
This hearty dish is quite filling on its own, but it goes exceptionally well with a side of steamed broccoli or a crisp green salad to add a fresh contrast. For an added touch, you can serve it with some spring rolls or dumplings, which can be store-bought or homemade. If you’re looking to add more color and variety, consider serving with a platter of lightly pickled vegetables, which will offer a nice tangy counterbalance to the rich and savory flavors of the chow mein.
