🛒 Ingredients

✓ 280g all-purpose flour
✓ 7g instant yeast (1 tsp)
✓ 150ml warm 2% milk
✓ 60ml warm water
✓ 1 egg (for dough)
✓ 4g salt
✓ 10ml light olive oil
✓ 150g light mozzarella, shredded
✓ 50g feta cheese, crumbled
✓ 100g halal beef sujuk, thinly sliced
✓ 2 large eggs (for topping)
✓ 5g butter (melted, for finishing)
✓ 2g black pepper, 1g paprika (for garnish)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Activate & Mix Dough: Combine warm milk, water, yeast, and 1 tsp sugar in a bowl. Wait 5 minutes until foamy. Add flour, salt, 1 egg, and olive oil. Mix until shaggy, then knead for 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.

2. First Rise (Efficient): Place dough in lightly oiled bowl, cover with damp cloth, let rise 45 minutes at room temperature until doubled. (Faster than traditional khachapuri recipes.)

3. Preheat & Divide: Heat oven to 220°C (425°F). Divide dough into 2 equal portions. Shape each into a ball, then flatten into a 6-inch oval on parchment paper.

4. Prepare Filling: Lightly pan-fry halal beef sujuk slices over medium-high heat for 3 minutes until edges crisp. Drain on paper towel to remove excess oil—this is key for the Fat Switch.

5. Layer Cheese & Sujuk: On each dough oval, scatter half the light mozzarella in the center, leaving a 1-inch border. Top with sujuk slices and feta crumbles. Fold edges slightly inward (boat-like shape).

6. Egg White Wash & First Bake: Brush edges with beaten egg white mixed with 5ml water. Bake 18 minutes until golden and cheese melts. Remove from oven.

7. Add Eggs & Final Bake: Create a small well in cheese center of each khachapuri. Crack 1 fresh egg into each well. Return to oven for 5–7 minutes until egg white sets but yolk remains runny (160°C if needed).

8. Finish & Serve Hot: Brush warm edges with 5g melted butter. Sprinkle paprika and black pepper. Serve immediately while cheese pulls and yolk flows.
