Prepare a breading station with three shallow dishes. In the first dish, add flour. In the second dish, whisk eggs with milk until well combined. In the third dish, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Take frozen ravioli and thaw them slightly according to package instructions or leave them at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Ensure they are not completely frozen but still firm.
Coat each ravioli in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any extra to drip off, then press it into the breadcrumb mixture to fully coat. Repeat with all the ravioli.
In a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accurate frying temperature.
Carefully add 5-6 ravioli at a time to the hot oil, ensuring you don’t overcrowd the pot. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the ravioli and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining ravioli, ensuring the oil temperature stays consistent.
Serve the toasted ravioli warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
