Toasted Ravioli

Toasted Ravioli

Healthy Fact of the Day

While delicious, Toasted Ravioli is a high-calorie, high-fat dish due to the frying process. To make it healthier, consider baking the breaded ravioli in a preheated 425°F (220°C) oven for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through. This method significantly reduces oil absorption. You can also use whole wheat breadcrumbs for added fiber and choose ravioli with a vegetable filling for more nutrients. Opt for a homemade marinara sauce to control sugar and salt content. Remember, moderation is key – enjoy these as an occasional treat rather than a regular meal. Pair with a large salad to balance the meal and increase your vegetable intake.

Ingredients

 

  • 1 package (25-30 pieces) frozen cheese ravioli
  • 1 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 cup marinara sauce for dipping
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Thaw ravioli according to package instructions, if frozen.

  2. In a shallow bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

  3. In another bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.

  4. Dip each ravioli in the egg mixture, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

  5. Place breaded ravioli on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  6. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).

  7. Fry ravioli in batches for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.

  8. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with additional Parmesan while hot.

  9. Warm marinara sauce in a small saucepan or microwave.

  10. Serve toasted ravioli immediately with marinara sauce for dipping.

  11. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.

Bite into these Toasted Ravioli and relish the satisfying crunch giving way to a gooey, cheesy center.

Whether you’re serving them as a party appetizer or indulging in a comfort food feast, these crispy delights are sure to disappear faster than you can say “mangia!” So heat up that oil, grab your tongs, and get ready to transform humble ravioli into a crispy, cheesy masterpiece that’ll have everyone asking for seconds!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
