HOW TO MAKE "TOASTED" RAVIOLI
For this recipe, you'll need:
- Eggs
- Italian breadcrumbs
- Parmesan cheese
- Cheese ravioli
- Marinara sauce (optional)
Begin by grabbing a small bowl to whisk your eggs. In another small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese together.
Dip each ravioli into the whisked egg.
Shake off any excess egg and then place the ravioli in the bowl with the breadcrumbs and make sure all sides are coated.
Grease your air fryer basket and then place the battered ravioli inside.
Air fry for 3 minutes at 360º Fahrenheit. Make sure that you don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket. Giving the ravioli some space will help it "fry" faster and more evenly.
Flip the ravioli over with a fork or tongs and air fry for another 3-4 minutes and cook them until they are golden brown.
Remove the cooked ravioli and repeat the process until all the ravioli has been air fried.
Garnish with more Parmesan and serve with a side of marinara sauce.
SHOULD THE RAVIOLI BE THAWED BEFORE FRYING?
Yes, the ravioli need to be thawed before frying. You do not want to fry frozen ravioli as it will not produce the same crispy exterior and soft center.
WHAT GOES WELL WITH RAVIOLI?
If you are eating these ravioli as an appetizer, a bowl of marinara sauce goes great with them.
If you plan to eat them as a main dish, I suggest pairing them with a side salad and a simple chicken breast.
HOW DO YOU STORE LEFTOVER RAVIOLI?
If you have any leftover fried ravioli, place it in an airtight container - either a plastic storage bag or a storage container with a lid.
You can keep the ravioli in the fridge for 3-4 days.
WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO REHEAT LEFTOVER RAVIOLI?
To reheat, place the ravioli back in your air fryer for 5 minutes to crisp back up.
You can also reheat it in the microwave, but don't expect it to be as crispy.
CAN YOU FREEZE FRIED RAVIOLI?
Yes, you can! Allow the fried ravioli to cool completely before placing in a plastic freezer bag.
Place the bag in the freezer, making sure it is laying flat. You can keep the ravioli in the freezer for 3-4 months.
To reheat, allow to thaw in the fridge. Then place the ravioli in the air fryer again for 5 minutes. Grab your marinara sauce and enjoy!
