Valentine's Raviolis

How to celebrate Valentine's day when you're single? I think the best way to keep yourself busy on this day, so you won't be moping about your singlehood, is to cook! Not just cooking for the idea of killing the whole day on Feb. 14. But cooking what you love to eat! One of the foods I haven't tried to make is Ravioli. I love Raviolis. Any fillings are mouthwatering to me. But there are fillings I love to try myself. I want anything that is easy and simple, so these fillings are what I came up with.

Let's start with apples...

Fried Apple Pie Raviolis

What you need:

2 red apples

sugar

salt

flour

eggs

oil

1. boil 1 1/2 cup of water and add 1 tease spoon of brown sugar. 

2. slice the apples in tiny cubes, and cook them in the boiling water for 15 minutes 

until they caramelized 

3. set the apples aside in a clean plate and mash them using a fork.

After making the ravioli filling, it's time to make the dough!

4. mix flour, unbeaten egg, oil, salt all at once

5. knead your dough until it becomes a springy stuff

Dough is springy, let's start putting the fillings in!

6. make 2 round flat palm-sized dough, put the filling in the first flat, then cover it with 

the other round flat dough

7. seal all the sides, then using a small knife cut the rounds in small ravioli squares 

just like this photo below

Apple Pie Raviolis are ready to fry!

8. Deep fry the raviolis in canola or olive oil for 5 seconds each side until 

they are light-gold brown.

This recipe was something I just thought random and I really had no expectations. So when I served it to my dad I was kinda hesitant then later surprised about his reaction. He was floored that I was able to make him a bread. Lol. I was, too, very happy that it tasted so damn good!

My next ravioli will be a pizza ravioli. Will post it tom.

Stay tuned.

Happy Sunny Days!
