This Fried Ravioli recipe comes together in about 30 minutes, and it’s everything you need for a quick weeknight dinner that your family will absolutely love!
Ingredients You’ll Need for Fried Ravioli
Here’s a simple breakdown of what you need to whip up this delicious fried ravioli:
- 20 oz frozen cheese ravioli
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (for that perfect coating)
- 2 large eggs (this helps them stick!)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko works great, too, for extra crunch)
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (because more cheese is always better)
- Olive oil spray (to make them extra crispy)
- Marinara sauce for dipping (for that classic touch)
Let’s Get Cooking!
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). If you don’t have one, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered, just use a deep fryer or even go for the oven!
Set up your breading station: In one bowl, place your flour. In another, crack those two large eggs and beat them until they’re lovely and blended. And finally, in a third bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs with the grated Parmesan cheese yep, you read that right, it’s going to be cheesy!
Now, it’s time to bread the ravioli. First, dip each piece in flour (give ‘em a good coating), then into the egg mixture (let it drip a little), and finally, coat with that scrumptious breadcrumb and Parmesan mix. Make sure they’re well covered so they get all crispy and golden!
Arrange the breaded ravioli in a single layer in your air fryer basket. And here’s a little tip: don’t overcrowd them or they won’t fry evenly.
Spray them lightly with olive oil. This is an important step! It’s like giving them a warm hug to encourage that beautiful crispy texture.
Now, cook for about 8-10 minutes or until they’re golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them; every air fryer is a little different!
Serve with marinara sauce for dipping and watch your family dive in! Trust me, they’ll be asking for seconds!
