Handful flat leaf parsley, chopped
12 large fresh spinach and cheese ravioli, about 3/4 pound
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), divided

Beat eggs and a splash of milk seasoned with salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Combine bread crumbs with cheese and parsley in a second dish. Coat the fresh pasta in egg then bread crumbs. Heat 3 tablespoons EVOO over medium heat in a skillet then toast the ravioli until deep golden, 3-4 minutes on each side.
In a small sauce pot heat the remaining EVOO and the garlic and red pepper flakes over medium-low heat. Grind the roasted peppers in the food processor and add to garlic after it sautés for a couple of minutes. Stir in tomatoes and season the sauce with salt and pepper. When ready to serve, transfer sauce to a small bowl. Surround the sauce with toasted ravioli for dipping and serve.
