Preparation

  1. Sprinkle a thin layer of bread crumbs evenly over the bottom of a shallow tray or pan.
  2. Dip ravioli into milk, and place close together on top of the crumbs. Cover completely with more bread crumbs. Pat down so the coating adheres. Repeat as necessary until all the ravioli is coated. (If you prefer, the ravioli can be dipped and breaded separately.)
  3. Fry in oil heated to 375 degrees for 3 or 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain.
  4. Place on heated plate. Sprinkle at once with Parmesan cheese and serve plain or dipped in a tomato, meat or butter sauce.
