Are you looking for an easy dinner recipe that’s quick to make and will have your family begging for more? Look no further than fried ravioli! As a mom of three, I’m always on the lookout for meals that are both delicious and simple to prepare, and fried ravioli hits the spot every time.
First, let me share with you my personal experience with fried ravioli. It all started when I was trying to come up with a quick and easy appetizer for a last-minute dinner party. I had a package of frozen ravioli in the freezer and decided to try something new. I fried them up and served them with a side of marinara sauce, and they were an instant hit! My guests were raving about them and asked for the recipe. From that moment on, fried ravioli has been a go-to appetizer and even a main course in our house.
To make fried ravioli, you’ll need:
- 1 package of fresh or frozen ravioli
- 1 cup of Italian breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
- Marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions:
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Beat the eggs in a bowl and set aside.
- Mix the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese in a separate bowl.
- Season the flour with salt and pepper in a third bowl.
- Dip the ravioli in the flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumb mixture.
- Place the ravioli in the frying pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
- Remove the ravioli from the pan and place them on a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
- Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
One of the great things about fried ravioli is that it’s versatile. You can serve it as an appetizer or as a main course with a side salad. It’s also perfect for those nights when you don’t have a lot of time to cook but want something delicious.
If you want to mix things up, you can try different types of ravioli, such as cheese or spinach and ricotta or go fancy with lobster ravioli. You can also experiment with different types of breadcrumbs, such as panko or seasoned breadcrumbs, to add extra flavor.
This fried ravioli recipe is a quick and easy dinner recipe that’s perfect for busy moms. It’s delicious, versatile, and will have your family asking for more. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
