A quintessential St. Louis delicacy, our Toasted Ravioli is a delightful fusion of crunchy and creamy textures. Each ravioli is meticulously breaded, fried to a golden perfection, and served alongside a tangy marinara sauce for an unforgettable dipping experience. This dish, a staple in St. Louis since the 1940s, is the perfect starter for any meal or a deliciously satisfying snack on its own.

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Cheese ravioli
1 pound
Eggs
2
Whole milk
1/4 cup
Breadcrumbs
1 cup
Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 cup
Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon
Salt
1 teaspoon
Vegetable oil
enough for frying
Marinara sauce
1.5 cups

Instructions

  1. Cook the cheese ravioli according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain well and allow it to cool.
  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
  3. In a separate shallow bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and salt.
  4. Dip each cooled ravioli into the egg and milk mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat this step until all ravioli are breaded.
  5. In a large skillet, heat enough vegetable oil over medium heat to fully submerge the ravioli.
  6. Fry the breaded ravioli in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet. Cook each side until golden brown, approximately 3 minutes per side.
  7. Once fried, drain the toasted ravioli on paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  8. Serve the toasted ravioli hot, accompanied by marinara sauce for a tangy, delectable dip.
