Layered khachapuri with cheese
Description
This recipe won't take much time. Although khachapuri is traditionally a dish from Azerbaijan, modified versions can be found in various countries. It's hard to say exactly how this pastry should look. In my opinion, the most important thing is that they taste delicious. Both puff pastry and yeast dough can be used; today I'll share a recipe using puff pastry. 1. Remove the pastry from the freezer ahead of time to thaw. Meanwhile, prepare the filling: place all the cheese into a deep bowl, add yogurt and one chicken egg, then mix well. 2. Roll out the puff pastry and cut it into 8–10 equal squares (or rectangles). 3. Place 1 or 1.5 teaspoons of the cheese filling in the center of each square. 4. Fold each corner toward the center to form a smaller square. 5. Beat the remaining egg in a bowl and use a brush to glaze each pastry. 6. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 20–30 minutes. 7. The finished khachapuri will be golden brown and very appetizing. Serve with tea or coffee.
