Megruli khachapuri

Mingrelian khachapuri is a Georgian khachapuri variety originating from Samegrelo. Although it's quite similar to its Imeretian cousin, this khachapuri is round and it's topped with even more cheese (usually chkinti-kveli Imeretian cheese).

The dough is prepared with flour, water, yeast, sugar, and salt. Once it has risen, the dough is topped with a combination of eggs and cheese, then baked until the cheese becomes bubbly and golden brown. Before serving, this khachapuri variety can be rubbed with butter, if desired.
