St. Louis Toasted Ravioli

Next up on our cross-country trek, we’re stopping for lunch in St. Louis, Missouri for a delicious Midwest dish — Toasted Ravioli.

Prep Time: 15 mins

Cook Time: 10 mins

Total Time: 25 mins

Servings: 6


1 (16 oz) jar marinara sauce

1 large egg

2 tbsps whole milk

¾ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs

½ tsp salt (Optional)

½ (25 oz) package frozen cheese ravioli, thawed

3 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese


Directions

Gather all ingredients.

Heat marinara sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until bubbling; reduce the heat to low and simmer until needed.

Meanwhile, whisk egg and milk together in a small bowl. Whisk bread crumbs and salt together in a second small bowl.

Dip each ravioli in milk mixture, then in bread crumbs to coat.

Heat 2 inches oil in a large, heavy pan until a small amount of breading sizzles and turns brown. Fry ravioli, a few at a time, until golden, about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle warm ravioli with Parmesan and serve immediately with hot marinara sauce on the side.
