Equipment

  • deep fryer or large heavy skillet
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Tongs or slotted spoon
  • Paper Towels
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounce meat ravioli
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • vegetable oil for frying (enough for deep frying)

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk the 2 beaten eggs with 1/4 cup water until combined; set aside.
  • In another bowl, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning and 1 teaspoon garlic salt; mix and set aside.
  • Place 1 cup flour in a shallow bowl for dredging.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large heavy skillet to 350°F (about 175°C), using enough oil to deep-fry the ravioli.
  • Working in batches, dredge each ravioli in flour, shake off excess, dip into the egg wash, then press into the breadcrumb mixture to coat evenly.
  • Carefully add coated ravioli to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2–4 minutes per batch depending on oil temperature.
  • Remove fried ravioli with tongs or a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  • Serve warm with your favorite marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen ravioli; adjust frying time if frozen.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan to keep oil temperature steady.
  • Pat ravioli dry if they are very moist before coating.
