• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1  lb  large  ravioli, fresh (or frozen)
• 1  cup cornmeal
• 1⁄2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, for coating ravioli, plus a handful for salad dressing
•  salt

• 1  teaspoon anchovy paste
• 3 -4  dashes  hot sauce, such as Tabasco
• 1  teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, eyeball it
• 3  romaine lettuce, hearts chopped

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil for ravioli. Salt water and cook a minute less than package directions for either fresh or frozen pasta, then drain thoroughly. Heat about 3 tablespoons EVOO in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Combine cornmeal, 1/2 cup of Parmigiano Reggiano and lots of black pepper on a plate. Coat the drained ravioli in the cornmeal and cheese mixture. Shake off excess and fry the ravioli until golden on each side, 4-5 minutes total. Remove them to a paper-towel lined plate and season with some salt.
2. For the salad, whisk together the lemon zest and juice, grated garlic, mustard, anchovy paste, hot sauce and Worcestershire then stream in the EVOO, about 5 tablespoons. Coat the romaine in dressing then season with pepper and a handful of grated cheese. Top salad with crispy ravioli and serve.
