What You Need To Make This Deep-Fried Ravioli On a Stick Recipe?
Vegetable Oil: In our recipe, we need a quart of oil, which is the unsung hero that turns each ravioli into a crispy masterpiece. Imagine it as the conductor leading a symphony of flavors making sure that perfect golden crunch is achieved. Remember to let the oil heat up patiently. That’s the secret, to getting that satisfying crispiness.
All-Purpose Flour: Think of all-purpose flour as a blanket that wraps around each ravioli giving them an embrace before they sizzle away. It’s like the foundation creating a hug that sets the stage for the crunchiness ahead. As you coat those pockets in flour picture them getting snug and ready for their adventure.
Eggs: Beaten eggs act as the binding force bringing together the flour and breadcrumbs to create a coating. They’re like storytellers weaving a narrative connecting every element to craft a tale of crispy deliciousness. Crack those eggs with anticipation for the binding process about to unfold.
Plain Bread Crumbs: Visualize plain bread crumbs as golden armor encasing our ravioli. They add a layer of crunchiness and act as a shield keeping the exterior crispy while maintaining tenderness within. It’s, like an enticing secret handshake your taste buds will truly appreciate.
Don’t be afraid to coat those pasta pillows for a crunch every time you take a bite.
Parmesan Cheese: Grated Parmesan cheese plays the role of a flavor magician, in this adventure sprinkling its magic throughout. Imagine it as the sage imparting wisdom to each ravioli taking the taste to heights. As you add Parmesan envision a sprinkle of enchantment that reveals itself with each bite.
Dried Herbs and Spices: Dried oregano, basil, thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper. These are like the wizards in our recipe. Picture them coming like a potion that infuses the ravioli with an orchestra of scents and flavors. It’s a dance that turns every bite into an adventure. Be generous with them. Let their aroma guide your spirit.
Store-Bought Ravioli: Ah, the store-bought ravioli (or tortellini) our made heroes. They’re like sidekicks to be transformed into something extraordinary. Handle them with care. They’ll reward you with convenience and deliciousness. Think of them as a canvas just waiting for your brushstrokes.

Want To Save This Recipe?
Step 1: To get started heat a pot of vegetable oil, over medium-high heat.
Step 2: Prepare the breading setup by using one dish for flour, another for beaten eggs and a third for a mixture of bread crumbs, ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese oregano, basil, thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Tip:
Achieving the perfect golden crunch requires a bit of patience. Before introducing your ravioli to the sizzling dance of hot oil, ensure it reaches a temperature of 350ºF. Think of it as conducting a symphony—let the oil warm up gradually, allowing each piece to achieve a harmonious crispiness. This ensures that the exterior becomes a crispy crescendo while the interior remains a tender, flavorful note. So, resist the urge to rush and let the oil compose the perfect symphony for your Deep-Fried Ravioli On a Stick.
