Notes

  • For extra crispy ravioli, freeze them for at least an hour before frying; this helps prevent sogginess.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan when frying; work in batches to ensure even cooking and browning.
  • Leftover ravioli can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer for best results.
