Crispy Fried Ravioli
This Fried Ravioli recipe is made with frozen ravioli (meat, cheese, or veggie) that are coated in Italian panko breadcrumbs and fried until perfectly crispy and golden brown.
Ingredients
- 20 - 25 oz package frozen ravioli (any variety) (thawed)
- 2 cups Italian panko breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- Canola oil (for frying)
- marinara sauce (warmed, for dipping)
- grated Parmesan cheese (for garnish)
- minced fresh parsley (for garnish)
Directions
- 1
Add enough oil to dutch oven (or other large heavy bottomed pot) to be about 2 inches deep, and heat over MED heat to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with a paper towel, then top with a wire cooling rack. Set aside, near the stove.

Make sure thawed raviolis are dry, then add a ravioli to the bowl with the egg wash. Turn to coat all sides.

When oil is hot and has come to the 350°F temperature, gently add several raviolis (carefully dropping away from you), being careful not to add too many as this will overcrowd the pan and the ravioli won't get as crisp and the oil temperature will drop too much.

Before serving, warm the marinara sauce and sprinkle raviolis with grated Parmesan and minced parsley if desired.
