They can be served to friends, neighbors and other guests. Believe me, everyone will appreciate these flatbreads and, moreover, they will ask for more! So don’t skimp on the ingredients and immediately prepare a double or even triple portion.
To make homemade khachapuri, you will definitely need all the ingredients for the dough, as well as cheese. Lots of cheese! In each recipe we will use a different variety, but you remember that you can always choose the cheese to your taste.
If, by the way, the cheese is very salty, then it can be soaked in water for several hours. The water will remove the salt and the cheese will become more edible. It is also important to remember that if the cheese is salty, then the filling should not be salted under any circumstances. You will only spoil the dish, because it will become inedible.
Many different products can be used as additives. The most popular product for khachapuri will always be greens. We only used dill, but you can use cilantro, basil, arugula, rosemary and so on. You can also use garlic, chili, cayenne pepper to add piquancy and spiciness to the filling. You can also add pieces of tomato, sweet pepper and more.
We include eggs in every dough recipe. They must be fresh in order to get the most delicious and, again, fresh dish. To choose fresh eggs in a store or market, we advise you to follow some rules in their selection.
- First of all, try rubbing the eggs near your ear before you buy them. They should not make any sounds. If there is still a dull sound, it means that the product has been standing for a long time and has had time to gain oxygen. In addition, the yolk has probably already come off its walls;
- The next way to buy fresh eggs is in a cardboard box. This is how eggs are often sold, and in this case the sell-by date is indicated on the box. Choose the freshest ones and remember that eggs still have two to three days after they are due;
- The next method for purchased eggs is to fill a deep container of water and lower each egg in turn. The lower it lies, the fresher it is.

2. There, you need to add salt, sugar and odorless vegetable oil, knead again.
3. Add flour a little at a time. You need to add until the mass becomes thick and you can no longer stir.
4. Now you need to put the dough on the table, after sprinkling flour on it. All that remains is to knead with your hands.
Our task is to obtain a soft and pleasant texture. Make sure it is not too tight. Flour is added until the dough does not stick to your hands. Watch carefully, because if you add too much flour you can get an unpleasant taste. Leave the dough for twenty minutes.

8. Raise the base towards the center so that the filling can be sealed.
9. The resulting cake must be turned over and stretched again by hand. After this, carefully work with a rolling pin to make a thick pancake.
The procedure for the rest of the test is no different, so we repeat the penultimate points.
10. In order to fry khachapuri, you need to heat a dry frying pan.
It is imperative that the non-stick coating is of high quality and not damaged.
Frying takes a total of up to five minutes over medium heat on each side. We determine readiness by browning.
