Toasted Raviolis

Toasted Ravioli

Ingredients:

1/2 package meat or cheese ravioli (thawed)

1 beaten egg

2 TBSP milk

3/4 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese + more for garnish (optional)

3 cups vegetable oil for frying

1 jar marinara sauce for dipping

Directions:

1.  Combine milk and egg in a small dipping bowl. In a separate bowl combine bread crumbs and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (optional).

2.  Dip thawed ravioli in egg mixture then in breadcrumbs.

3.  In a large heavy pan, pour oil to depth of 2 inches. Heat over medium heat until a small amount of breading sizzles and turns brown. Fry breaded ravioli in oil, a few at a time, for 1 minute on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with extra parmesan cheese (optional).

4.  Serve immediately with heated marinara sauce.

Tip: If you want to make a few packages at a time they freeze very well. Store in a freezer bag until ready to use. To warm: heat on cookie sheet in a 450 degree oven for 5-10 minutes on each side. They will taste freshly made and wonderful!
