1. STEP 1

   

   How to make khachapuri with milk and cheese? To begin, prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list and start cooking with the dough. Take only the highest grade flour. You can replace dry yeast with fresh pressed yeast, you need 2 times more of it, that is, about 12-15 g.

2. STEP 2

   

   Melt the butter first and cool it.

3. STEP 3

   

   Dissolve sugar in warm water heated to 37-40ºС. Scatter dry yeast over the surface and leave until a fluffy cap appears (10-20 minutes). This means that the yeast is working and you can continue cooking. If the cap does not appear, then the yeast is of poor quality and the dough will not rise with it.

4. STEP 4

   

   Sift flour into a large bowl. Add salt and stir.

5. STEP 5

   

   Make a well in the flour. Add egg, warm milk and melted butter to it. Pour in activated yeast.

   Knead soft elastic homogeneous dough. Roll the dough into a ball, brush with vegetable oil and place in a bowl. Cover with a towel and leave in a warm place to rise for 1.5-2 hours.

7. STEP 7

   

   While the dough is rising, prepare the necessary ingredients for filling and greasing. Instead of suluguni, you can use Imeretian cheese.

8. STEP 8

   

   Grate the suluguni on a coarse grater.

9. STEP 9

   

   Punch down the risen dough and divide into 3 equal parts.

10. STEP 10

    

    Roll out each piece of dough on a floured table into a circle with a diameter of 25-28 cm.

11. STEP 11

    

    Place approximately 150 g of grated cheese in the middle.

12. STEP 12

    

    Lift the edges of the dough and gather in the center.

13. STEP 13

    

    Turn the dough over, seam side down, and roll out again into a circle of the same diameter.

14. STEP 14

    

    Transfer the khachapuri to a baking sheet lined with parchment and brush with yolk.

15. STEP 15

    

    Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top. Bake in an oven preheated to 200ºC for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Bon appetit!
