Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces store-bought ravioli
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 0.333 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 1 cup marinara sauce
Instructions
Prepare a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, beat the eggs with the milk. In the third bowl, combine the Italian breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each ravioli into the flour, coating it lightly. Shake off any excess flour and then dip the ravioli into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Finally, press the ravioli into the breadcrumb mixture, covering it completely. Repeat for all ravioli pieces and set them aside on a plate.
In a deep skillet or medium-sized saucepan, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). To test if the oil is ready, drop a small piece of bread into the oil; it should sizzle and brown within a few seconds.
Carefully drop a few of the breaded ravioli into the hot oil, frying them in batches. Cook for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried ravioli and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the ravioli bites warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy your Mamma Mia Ravioli Bites!
