Ingredients
  

  • Fresh or frozen ravioli cheese or meaty filling
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup of breadcrumbs Panko works great!
  • Cooking oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Marinara sauce for dipping

Method
 

  1. Prep the Ravioli: If using fresh ravioli, ensure they are cooked according to the package instructions. If using frozen, you can slightly thaw them before frying.
  2. Set Up Dredging Station: Prepare three separate bowls. Fill the first bowl with flour, whisk the eggs in the second bowl, and place the breadcrumbs in the third bowl.
  3. Dredge the Ravioli: Take each ravioli and dip it into the flour, making sure it’s fully coated. Next, dip it into the egg mix, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, roll it in the breadcrumbs until fully coated.
  4. Skewer the Ravioli: Insert a skewer into each breaded ravioli, ensuring they're secured.
  5. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat enough oil for frying over medium heat until hot.
  6. Fry the Ravioli: Carefully place the skewered ravioli into the hot oil and fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  7. Drain and Serve: Once crispy, remove the ravioli from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with marinara sauce on the side.
