Georgian Flatbread with Filling! Traditional Khachapuri with Egg

suluguni cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat mozzarella

💰Cheaper: regular mozzarella

Low-fat mozzarella reduces calories while maintaining texture.

feta cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Cottage cheese is lower in fat and provides a similar tangy flavor.

Combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.

Add warm water and vegetable oil to the mixture and stir.

Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).

Divide the risen dough into equal portions and roll each into a circle.

Fill the center of each dough circle with cheese mixture (exact type not specified), leaving a border around the edges.

Fold the edges of the dough over the cheese filling, pinching to seal it.

Shape the dough into a boat-like form, ensuring the cheese is visible in the center.

Brush the tops of the dough with milk before baking.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.

Remove from the oven and crack 2 eggs on top of each khachapuri.

Return to the oven and bake until the eggs are set, about 5 minutes.
