Adjaruli Khachapuri
VegetarianAdjaruli khachapuri comes from Adjara, on the Black Sea coast. The boat shape is said to be a ship, the yolk the sun. In Georgia people use sulguni and imeruli cheese. In Vancouver we mix low-moisture mozzarella with feta, and it works beautifully.

Ingredients
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 250 ml warm milk
- 1 tsp instant yeast
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 300 g low-moisture mozzarella, grated
- 200 g feta, crumbled
- 4 egg yolks
- 40 g butter, in 4 pieces
Method
- Mix the milk, yeast and sugar. Add the flour, salt and oil and knead a soft dough for 8 minutes.
- Cover and leave it to rise for about an hour, until doubled.
- Mix the two cheeses with a splash of water. Heat the oven to 250°C (480°F).
- Divide the dough into 4. Roll each into an oval, roll the long edges inward and pinch the ends to make a boat.
- Fill the boats with cheese and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden.
- Make a dip in the cheese, drop in a yolk and bake for 1 more minute. Add the butter and serve right away.
- To eat: stir the yolk and butter into the cheese, tear off the crust and dip.
Tamara's tip: if the cheese mix tastes too salty, soak the feta in water for 30 minutes first.
