Trader Joe’s Breaded Fried Ravioli is Battered and Deep Fried

— February 26, 2021 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe’s Breaded Fried Ravioli is a toasted ravioli dish that can be prepared in minutes, as the hard work of stuffing, battering and deep-frying and flash freezing the pasta shells has already been completed. The quick and convenient dish takes cues from legends that say fresh ravioli was once added to a deep fryer instead of a pot of hot water.

This version of toasted ravioli by Trader Joe's is made with a base of semolina pasta and five kinds of cheese (ricotta, Monterey Jack, mozzarella, Asiago and Parmesan.) The novel pasta dish can be prepared using a number of different kitchen appliances, including the oven, skillet or even the air fryer for crispy perfection.
