TOASTED RAVIOLI



Toasted Ravioli image

Provided by Food Network

Time 7h

Yield 8 to 10 servings (50 to 60 ravioli)

Number Of Ingredients 16

16 ounces ricotta
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) melted butter
1/4 cup parsley flakes
1/4 cup grated Romano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 large egg
Blended oil, for oiling the equipment
1 large egg
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons kosher salt
4 cups high-gluten flour, plus more for dusting
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
4 cups cracker meal
Canola oil, for frying

Steps:

  • For the filling: Combine the ricotta, butter, parsley flakes, Romano, salt, pepper and egg in a large bowl and mix well. Set aside.
  • For the pasta dough: Fit a stand mixer with the dough hook, then generously oil the hook to prevent dough from sticking. Whisk the egg, milk, salt and 1 tablespoon water together in a mixing bowl. Pour egg and milk mixture into the stand mixer bowl and add half the flour. Beat the dough over medium-low speed until the flour begins to incorporate into the mixture. Gradually add the rest of the flour until the dough comes together and forms a ball. Once the dough is mixed, turn out onto a floured surface.
  • Divide the dough into 2 portions. Using a pasta machine or pasta attachment for your stand mixer, sheet the dough: Begin with the machine on the thickest setting and run one of the dough pieces through. Gradually reduce the setting number until the dough has been sheeted through the lowest number.
  • Scoop roughly 1/2-tablespoon dollops of filling on the pasta layer, leaving 1 inch of space from the edge of the pasta and in between each. Lightly sprinkle water over the pasta. This will help the top layer adhere.
  • Using the same process as before, run the second portion of dough through the pasta machine, gradually thinning it to match the same thinness as the bottom layer. Carefully lay the top layer over the pasta and filling. Gently press the dough around the scoops of filling to seal the ravioli.
  • Using a pasta cutter, cut the ravioli into 2-inch squares. Place cut ravioli on a parchment-lined sheet pan and cover. Freeze until completely solid, at least 3 hours. (Make sure your raviolis are fully frozen before breading, as the dough has a tendency to thaw quickly. If the raviolis are soft during breading, they can become misshapen.)
  • For the breading: Whisk the eggs and milk together in a medium bowl. Add the cracker meal to a second medium bowl. Working in batches, dip ravioli into the egg and milk mixture, then toss into the cracker meal, coating well. Put breaded ravioli back on the lined sheet pan, cover and freeze for another 3 hours.
  • Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pan halfway with canola oil and heat oil to 350 degrees F. Cook the ravioli in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pan, and flipping during cooking, until golden brown all over, about 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh ingredients whenever possible, especially the tomatoes, onions, and cilantro.
  • Choose Ripe Avocados: Ripe avocados are creamier and have a richer flavor. Look for avocados that are dark green or black in color and slightly soft to the touch.
  • Don't Overcook the Ravioli: The ravioli should be cooked until they are al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Use a Good Quality Cheese: The cheese is a key ingredient in this dish, so use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A good melting cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar, works well.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The ravioli will start to lose their crispiness if they sit for too long.

These toasted Mexican ravioli are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a weeknight meal.
