St Louis Style Toasted Ravioli
Authentic st. Louis style toasted ravioli that you can find on the menu of any resturaunt in st. Louis.

Louis. what is an out-of-towner, or in my case a relocated st. Louis native, to do? follow this recipe of course! Memories of imo's or cecil whittakers pizza will surely ensue...enjoy!
Steps
Prep:.
Heat vegetable oil in deep fryer or skillet to 350 degrees for deep frying.
It is ready when a tiny splash of water makes the oil sizzle.
(careful with this method , it sometimes makes the oil pop.
Dont lean over the fryer , and use an oven mit to protect your hands and arms ! ).
Mix water with eggs and beat well , set aside.
Pour italian bread crumbs and garlic salt in a bowl , set aside.
Pour flour in a separate bowl , set aside.
I have found that lining the ingredients up in this order makes things more efficient and less messy.
Flour , egg mix , and bread crumbs.
Roll out a 13-15in section of aluminum foil.
This is where the breaded ravioli can set until you are ready to fry them.
Roll out a 13-15in section of paper towels , 3-4 layers thick.
If you have one , place a cooling rack on top of the paper towels.
This is where the fried ravioli will drain.
Cook:.
Dip ravioli in flour , then in the egg mixture , and then roll ravioli in the bread crumbs.
Ravioli.
