Fried Zucchini Ravioli

Course: Appetizer, vegetable
Cuisine: Spanish
Author: LydiaF

Ingredients

  • Medium zucchini thinly sliced, two slices per ravioli
  • Cream cheese estimate 1 teaspoon per ravioli
  • Shredded white cheese about 1 teaspoon per ravioli (I used a pizza blend)
  • salt, pepper, chopped herbs to season the filling to taste
  • 1/2 cup seasoned flour or more as needed
  • 2 eggs beaten with a few teaspoons of water
  • 2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
  • oil for frying
  • chopped parsley for garnish
  • tomato sauce for serving

Instructions

  • Mix sufficient cream cheese with shredded cheese and seasoning for the filling. (For 10 ravioli you would use about a 1/3 cup of each...don't worry too much about it, you can always make a little more).
  • Assemble the ravioli as directed and secure with a toothpick.
  • Dip each one in flour, then in beaten egg, then bread crumbs.
  • Repeat the egg dip and use your hands to gently pack the bread crumbs around the ravioli.
  • Make more egg wash and add more breadcrumbs as needed.
  • Measure enough oil to come about halfway up the sides of the ravioli in a frying pan and heat until shimmering.
  • Carefully add three or four raviolis and fry until golden brown on both sides (three or four minutes per side).
  • Drain the raviolis on some paper towels.
  • Serve while hot with some sauce on the side as desired.
