Pasta is a regular staple in our house; I think I could eat it every single day.  It’s no secret that I love it; I’ve shared over a dozen of our favorite pasta recipes here and even have a free pasta eBook.  I love switching it up with out of the box ingredients or methods so that we don’t get bored of the same spaghetti and sauce variation.

These Fried Ravioli are deliciously crunchy little pillows of cheese goodness.  Almost like a lighter, bite-sized mozzarella stick.  Perfectly poppable and shareable as an appetizer or game day eat, but filling enough to serve with a salad for dinner.

The kids are always excited about any opportunity to eat with their fingers and love to dip their bites in sauce.  The Ragu® Spicy Italian Style is one of my favorites from their line of sauces and is the perfect pairing for these Fried Ravioli.  It’s a definite win around our family dinner table.

    Are we putting the frying pan in the oven with the oil? Would the oil make a mess in the oven? We don’t have to cook the pasta & drain & let it cool? I was hesitating the oil in frying pan early in the directions & heat to 350 degrees,

      No, don’t put the pan in the oven. The reference to 350 degrees should be what the oil needs to be when heated on the stove. You can use a candy thermometer or the like to test the oil. Hope this helps!

    They’re called “Toasted Ravioli” here in St. Louis and almost every restaurant serves them. You can also buy them at grocery stores in the frozen food section. We love them!!

    Do you boil the ravioli first?

      No, just use them fresh from the package. They will cook in the oil.

    Can you make these ahead of time and heat them when ready to serve?

      Hi Cathy- I’ve never tried that. I think you could, but they might not be as good. :/ I don’t think they would be as crunchy reheated. I might try making them ahead and then keeping warm in the oven at a low temp instead of microwaving. Hope this helps!

    I’d never have thought to just bread some ravioli and then fry it up. I bet it makes for one yummy meal, especially with the crispy outer layer. 🙂
