St. Louis Missouri
Toasted Cheese Ravioli

This St. Louis style of preparing ravioli is unique and delicious.
The ravioli is breaded, fried and served with marinara sauce
and a sprinkling of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons whole milk
1 egg
3/4 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/2 (25 ounce) package frozen cheese ravioli, thawed
3 cups vegetable oil for frying
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1 (16 ounce) jar tomato sauce

Directions:
Combine milk and egg in a small bowl.
Place breadcrumbs and if desired, salt in a shallow bowl.
Dip ravioli in milk mixture, and coat with breadcrumbs.
In a large saucepan, heat marinara sauce
over medium heat until bubbling. Reduce the heat to simmer.
In a large heavy pan, pour oil to depth of 2 inches.
Heat oil over medium heat and fry ravioli, a few at a time,
1 minute on each side or until golden. Drain on paper towels.
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese
and serve immediately with hot marinara sauce.
