Fried Ravioli

Ingredients:

  • Oil to use for frying
  • 24 frozen ravioli (thawed)
  • 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup (¼ cup + ¼ cup) grated parmesan, divided
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup of whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley
  • Marinara sauce (for dipping)

PREPARATION:

  1. Prepare a large deep pan with vegetable oil. Fill until the oil reaches about 2 – 3 inches in the pan. Heat the oil to 350°F.
  2. Line one baking sheet with parchment or wax paper and line another with paper towel. Set both aside.
  3. Using 2 shallow bowls, pour 1 cup of Italian breadcrumbs and ¼ cup of parmesan cheese into one bowl and combine.
  4. Then in the other bowl, add 1 egg and ¼ cup of whole milk and whisk until blended.
  5. Dip each thawed ravioli into the egg/milk mixture, coat the entire ravioli, then dredge them through the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each ravioli is well covered with breadcrumbs.
  6. Place on the parchment lined baking sheet.
  7. Next, working in batches of 6 – 8 at a time, place the ravioli into the hot oil and fry for about 3 – 5 minutes or until the ravioli is golden brown and crispy around the edges. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to flip the ravioli at least once during the frying time.
  8. Remove from the hot oil and place on the paper towel lined baking sheet.
  9. Garnish with ¼ cup of grated parmesan and freshly chopped Italian parsley.
  10. Serve with your favorite marinara sauce, and ENJOY!
