Fried Ravioli

Pasta and cheese is a fantastic combination and after deep frying it, it was even more amazing.  Are you ever looking for a new idea for pasta other than just dredging it in pasta sauce? This recipe is really easy and super cheap.  The best part of this recipe is that you can buy ppre-made ravioli and marinara in the store.

INGREDIENTS:
1 package pre-made cheese filled ravioli
1 small jar marinara
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 Tbs. dry parsley
1 Tbs. dry  basil
2 Eggs
1/4 cup whole milk
Vegetable oil
Parmesan sheep

1.  Begin by heating an inch or two of oil in a medium sized pot.  The oil should be hot enough to crisp up a piece of bread in 10 seconds.  Keep a close eye on the oil, you do not want it to overheat.

2.  While the oil is heating, Combine the egg and milk in a bowl, and the bread crumbs, panko, parsley, and basil in a dish.

3.  When the oil is ready, dip the ravioli in the egg mixture and then the bread crumbs.  Drop gently into the hot oil flipping after a minute or two until the raviolis are golden brown.  Only cook about 2 or 3 raviolis at one time.  Otherwise, the oil will cool down too much and your raviolis wont cook properly.

4.  Put the cooked raviolis on a couple sheets of paper towel to soak up the extra oil and top with shredded Parmesan.  Heat up the marinara and serve.
