Ingredients
- 9 ounces fresh cheese ravioli
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- canola oil , for frying
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce , for dipping
- 1 tablespoon Pecorino Romano cheese , for topping
- parsley , for topping, if desired
Instructions
- Whisk together egg whites and whole milk in a shallow dish or pie plate.
- Place bread crumbs, fine sea salt and ground black pepper in a separate shallow dish or pie plate.
- Before starting to bread your ravioli, prepare about 1/2 inch of canola oil in a large heavy bottom frying pan or cast iron skillet. Heat over medium-high heat.
- Toss individual ravioli pieces in egg white mixture then bread crumbs. Set aside on a plate until ready to fry. They will not be fully coated, this is okay.
- Working in batches, place ravioli in hot oil, frying until lightly browned on one side, approximately 2 minutes, then flipping and repeating on the other side.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove to a paper towel lined plate or a cooling rack so any excess oil can drain.
- Place on a serving plate, topping with pecorino romano cheese and serving with a side of warmed marinara sauce. You can also garnish with parsley, if desired.

Notes
- You can use frozen ravioli, but allow it to fully thaw before breading and frying. Do not boil.
