Mix warm milk, yeast, and sugar in a bowl; let sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.

Combine plain flour and salt in a large bowl; make a well in the center.

Add the yeast mixture and butter to the flour; mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 8-10 minutes.

Place the dough in a greased bowl; cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).

Divide the risen dough into portions and shape each into a round disc.

Roll out each disc into an oval shape on a floured surface.

Mix mozzarella and cheddar cheeses in a bowl; fill the center of each dough oval with the cheese mixture.

Fold the edges of the dough over the cheese to create a boat shape.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Remove from the oven; crack an egg into the center of each khachapuri and return to the oven until the egg is set, about 3-5 minutes.

Brush the edges with melted butter before serving.
