Fried Ravioli

Ok – these little morsels of heaven are delicious! And they are a cute little appetizer for when you have people over! All you need is:

1 package of pre-made ravioli (I used spinach and ricotta stuffed raviolis)
1 egg – beaten
1 cup bread crumbs
Olive Oil

    In a small skillet I added about 1 cup of olive oil to to the bottom and then brought it up to medium heat. I then soaked each of the individual raviolis in the egg and then coated in bread crumbs. Then one by one add them to the skillet and let them go to work. It should take about 2 minutes per side for the bread crumbs to become a darker brown. Then flip and continue to fry for about 2 minutes more.

    Remove the ravioli from the skillet and place on a cooling rack or paper towel to let the excess oil drain off. Then once dry serve them along side with marinara sauce and you are good to go. How easy is that? And they were really gooooood!Let’s take a closer look on the inside – yummmmmmm!

    This is a great, quick snack (forget appetizers for guests – I’d eat them up as they came out of the pan)!

    Hi i was wondering if you used frozen ravioli or just refridgerated raviolis in this recipe?

    Hey Tom! I use the refrigerated ones all the time. I haven’t tried it with the frozen ones, but I would guess that if you thaw them out before breading them, they would work just fine!! Cheers :)
