Dough Ingredients:
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1½ tbsp water
- 2 tsp olive oil
- Dash of salt
Filling Ingredients:
- 2 cups of ricotta cheese (not cottage cheese)
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup of marinara sauce
- 1 tsp fresh parsley
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: 1 tsp garlic powder to taste
Breading Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups plain bread crumbs
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups olive oil
- 3 teaspoons garlic powder
- 3 teaspoons dried parsley
- 3 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
- Pour flour into a large bowl, making a well in the middle.
- Beat the eggs, water, and olive oil together in a separate bowl.
- Pour mixture into the flour well. Combine the flour and mixture with your hands, forming a ball.
- After the ball is formed, knead the dough until stretchy and smooth.
- Cover tightly and let rest from 30 minutes to an hour.
- While resting, combine all of the filling ingredients into a bowl, and prep the breading station, putting eggs, flour, and breadcrumbs into separate bowls. Season all three evenly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and parsley.
- Roll out dough into thin sheets. Use teaspoons to put filling onto half of the sheet of dough, about one inch apart. Cover with the other half once this is done, and press down with a fork to seal. Use a knife/pizza cutter to separate the dough into squares. Repeat with whatever is remaining.
- Breading time! Drench each ravioli with flour, then egg wash, then breadcrumbs. Repeat twice for a crunchier crust.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- Once olive oil is heated to 350 degrees, carefully place raviolis in heated oil.
- When each side turns golden brown, flip to completely cook the ravioli. Total cooking time is about 3 minutes.
- Once done, place each ravioli on a paper towel lined plate.
- In a saucepan, heat up your tasty sauce.
- Serve directly over ravioli, or on the side for dipping sauce.
