Chirbuli

(ჩირბული)

Chirbuli is a traditional dish originating from the region of Adjara. The dish is usually made with a combination of tomatoes, eggs, walnuts, onions, garlic, basil, coriander, paprika, butter, cornflour, and salt. The onions are chopped, sautéed in butter over low heat until golden, and mixed with cornflour and chopped tomatoes.


Ground walnuts, paprika, salt, coriander, basil, and garlic are added to the mix and stirred. The eggs are cracked onto the sauce, and the dish is cooked until the eggs have poached in the sauce. It's then served piping hot, usually for breakfast or as part of a supra (Georgian feast).
