Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Sift the flour (530 g) into a large bowl, then add the yeast, salt, sugar, room temperature milk, vegetable oil, and 20 grams of softened butter. Mix everything thoroughly until smooth, adding a little water (about 50 ml) if necessary. Cover the bowl with the dough and let it rest for thirty to forty minutes. Divide the dough into five portions — they should be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator.
Step 2
To make the filling, grate all the cheese coarsely, mix it with an egg, and add 20 grams of butter — if the cheese is rich, you can skip the butter: the filling should be fairly loose.
Step 3
Roll out five portions of dough with a rolling pin to form circles with a thickness of 5 mm. Poke holes around the perimeter (preferably with a wooden skewer) to release air from the dough.
Step 4
Finely chop all the herbs and mix them together, adding a little salt if needed. Place 150 grams of cheese filling — a mixture of Imeretian cheese with Suluguni and an egg — on each round of dough, along with 20 grams of herbs. Seal the edges of the dough. Lightly dust the pies with flour and roll them out again with a rolling pin to a thickness of 8–10 mm and the diameter of the baking molds.
Step 5
Make additional punctures around the perimeter and place the khachapuri in a preheated oven at maximum temperature for ten minutes. Before serving, brush the finished pies with melted butter.
