Time 2h8m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 1/2 cups flour
3 eggs
3 tablespoons salad oil
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 pound beef, cubed
1/2 pound veal, cubed
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped carrots
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 cups cooked, chopped spinach
4 eggs
1 cup grated Parmesan
4 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
4 cups seasoned bread crumbs
Grated Parmesan, for garnish
Tomato sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • For the dough: In a large mixing bowl, add all of the ingredients, and mix until the ingredients come together to form a dough. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 to 15 minutes. Wrap in plastic wrap and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the meat filling: combine the beef, veal, onion, celery, carrots, salt, and pepper in a roasting pan and roast until cooked through, about 1 hour. Let cool.
  • Add the spinach, then grind ingredients in a meat grinder with a fine grind. Add the eggs and cheese, and mix well, to create a paste-like texture.
  • Roll out the dough on a floured surface using a rolling pin. Make a large, very thin layer of dough. Spread out a thin layer of filling on half of one side of the dough, using a spatula. Fold the dough end over the filling side of the dough. Mark the filled dough with a ravioli marker (ravioli rolling pin). Cut ravioli out using a ravioli cutter. Freeze until hard.
  • To bread the ravioli: Make an egg wash by mixing together the eggs and the milk. Add the ravioli to the wash, then dip in the seasoned bread crumbs. Refreeze until ready to fry.
  • Preheat a deep fryer to 350 degrees F.
  • Fry the ravioli until golden brown. Serve hot on a plate sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan on top and tomato sauce on the side.

I've never had toasted ravioli before, but I'm definitely a fan now. These were so easy to make and they were so delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

These toasted ravioli are the best! I love the crispy outer layer and the gooey cheese filling. I always make a double batch because they disappear so quickly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my toasted ravioli turned out soggy. I think I might have used too much oil.

These toasted ravioli were so easy to make and they were delicious! I used a jar of marinara sauce and it was perfect. I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not a big fan of toasted ravioli, but I tried this recipe and I was pleasantly surprised. The ravioli were crispy and the cheese filling was gooey and flavorful. I would definitely make these again.

These toasted ravioli were a bit too crispy for my taste, but the flavor was great. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I followed the recipe exactly and the toasted ravioli turned out perfectly. They were crispy and golden brown on the outside and the cheese filling was melted and gooey. I served them with a side of marinara sauce and they were delicious.

This recipe is a keeper! The toasted ravioli were crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, just like I like them. I used a jar of marinara sauce and it was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.
