Fried Sweet Cheese Ravioli with Honey image

These deep-fried dessert pastries, which are sweetened with honey, are known as _sebadas_.

Yield Makes about 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups coarsely grated whole-milk mozzarella cheese
15-ounce container whole-milk or part-skim ricotta cheese
1 cup grated pecorino Sardo or pecorino Romano cheese
4 teaspoons grated lemon peel
4 cups bread flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs, beaten to blend
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, room temperature
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons (about) room-temperature water
Corn oil or olive oil (for frying)
Honey (preferably chestnut)

Steps:

  • Mix all cheeses and lemon peel in large bowl; set cheese mixture aside.
  • Lightly flour 2 baking sheets. Mix bread flour and salt in another large bowl; mix in beaten eggs. Using fingertips, rub in butter a few pieces at a time until well blended. Add 1/2 cup water; stir to blend, adding more water by tablespoonfuls if dough is dry. Knead in bowl until dough comes together. Turn dough out onto floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
  • Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll out 1 dough piece on lightly floured surface to scant 1/8-inch thickness. Using 3 1/2-inch-diameter cookie cutter or biscuit cutter and using sharp knife as aid, cut out rounds. Repeat with remaining dough pieces. Transfer half of dough rounds to prepared baking sheets. Place 2 level tablespoons cheese mixture in center of each dough round on baking sheets. Brush edges of dough rounds lightly with water. Cover with remaining dough rounds, pressing firmly on edges to adhere and seal.
  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Pour enough oil into heavy large pot to reach depth of 2 inches. Heat oil to 350°F. Add 3 to 4 ravioli at a time to hot oil in pot and deep-fry until golden, turning once, about 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Place ravioli on baking sheets and keep warm in oven while frying remaining ravioli. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cool; cover and refrigerate. Place on baking sheets and rewarm in 350°F oven until heated through and cheese melts, about 10 minutes.) Place ravioli on platter. Drizzle with honey and serve hot.

Homemade Four Cheese Ravioli image

Great homemade Italian ravioli recipe that I have recreated to taste like the ravioli at Maggiano's restaurant. Don't be intimidated by the large list of ingredients, it is well worth it!

Provided by Callie1025

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 2h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 eggs
1 ½ tablespoons water
1 (8 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup provolone cheese, shredded
1 egg
1 ½ teaspoons dried parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3 tablespoons prepared basil pesto sauce
2 cups heavy cream
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (24 ounce) jar marinara sauce
1 egg
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Mound the flour and salt together on a work surface and form a well. Beat the teaspoon of olive oil, 2 eggs, and water in a bowl. Pour half the egg mixture into the well. Begin mixing the egg with the flour with one hand; use your other hand to keep the flour mound steady. Add the remaining egg mixture and knead to form a dough.
  • Knead the dough until smooth, 8 to 10 minutes; add more flour if the dough is too sticky. Form the dough into a ball and wrap tightly with plastic. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • While the dough is resting, prepare the ravioli filling. Combine the ricotta cheese, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, provolone cheese, egg, and parsley and mix well. Set the filling aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and pesto sauce and cook for one minute. Pour in the heavy cream, raise the heat to high, and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until the cheese melts. Remove the pan from the heat and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan, warm the marinara sauce over medium-low heat.
  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Beat the egg with the tablespoon of water to make the egg wash.
  • Roll out the pasta dough into thin sheets no thicker than a nickel. To assemble the ravioli, brush the egg wash over a sheet of pasta. Drop the filling mixture on the dough by teaspoonfuls about one inch apart. Cover the filling with the top sheet of pasta, pressing out the air from around each portion of filling. Press firmly around the filling to seal. Cut into individual ravioli with a knife or pizza cutter. Seal the edges.
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the ravioli, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the ravioli float to the top and the filling is hot, 4 to 8 minutes. Drain well.
  • Grease a baking sheet. Place the cooked ravioli on the sheet pan and bake in the preheated oven until brown, about 4 minutes.
  • To serve the ravioli, divide them among four warmed serving bowls. Drizzle the marinara sauce over the ravioli and then top with the cream sauce.

FRIED RAVIOLI



Fried Ravioli image

Fried ravioli, a popular appetizer in St. Louis, Missouri, is breaded and deep-fried pasta. If frying pasta sounds strange to you, keep an open mind: crispy pasta shell, soft cheese filling and ample marinara sauce for dipping; what's not to like?

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Olive oil, for frying
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups Italian-style bread crumbs
1 box store-bought cheese ravioli (about 24 ravioli)
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 jar store bought marinara sauce, heated, for dipping

Steps:

  • Pour enough olive oil into a large frying pan to reach a depth of 2 inches. Heat the oil over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 325 degrees F.
  • While the oil is heating, put the buttermilk and the bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Working in batches, dip ravioli in buttermilk to coat completely. Allow the excess buttermilk to drip back into the bowl. Dredge ravioli in the bread crumbs. Place the ravioli on a baking sheet, and continue with the remaining ravioli.
  • When the oil is hot, fry the ravioli in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried ravioli to paper towels to drain.
  • Sprinkle the fried ravioli with Parmesan and serve with a bowl of warmed marinara sauce for dipping.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ravioli: Fresh ravioli will cook more evenly and have a better texture than frozen ravioli.
  • Choose a good quality oil: Use a high-heat oil, such as canola or vegetable oil, for frying the ravioli.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Fry the ravioli in batches so that they have plenty of room to cook.
  • Cook the ravioli until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
  • Drain the ravioli on paper towels: This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the ravioli immediately: Fried ravioli is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Fried cheese ravioli is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. With a crispy exterior and a gooey, cheesy interior, fried ravioli is sure to be a hit with everyone. Serve it with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
