Method
Ravioli Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Ravioli
If using frozen ravioli, cook them according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and let cool slightly.

- 3
Bread the Ravioli
Dip each ravioli in flour, then into the beaten egg, and finally coat with the bread crumb mixture. Ensure they are evenly coated.
Frying
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of bread into it; if it sizzles, it's ready.

Fry the Ravioli
Carefully add the breaded ravioli to the hot oil, in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

Drain Excess Oil
Remove the fried ravioli with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
