Beef Khashlama
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. I'm sure many of you have heard of the dish called khachapuri. This is a very popular Caucasian dish, considered traditional in Kakheti (a region of Georgia). There, this dish has a ritual significance. In other Caucasian regions, khachapuri is made with different types of meat, but today I'll focus on the recipe using beef. So, let's get cooking. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
