Lazy khachapuri with cheese in a pan
It turns out that to make a soft Georgian flatbread with a cheese filling, you don't have to spend hours at the stove. In just a few minutes, you can prepare lazy khachapuri with cheese in a pan. The taste won't differ much from the traditional khachapuri Imeretian, but for a quick breakfast or snack - this is quite an acceptable option.
Yield: 2 flatbreads with a diameter of 18 centimeters.
Cooking time: 30 minutes.
Caloric content: 294 kcal per 100 grams of the dish.
Cuisine: Georgian.
Ingredients
- flour, all-purpose - 140 g;
- milk of any fat content - 200 ml;
- chicken egg - 1 pc;
- white sugar - 0.5 tsp;
- salt - to taste;
- baking powder - 0.5 tsp;
- mozzarella - 240 g.
Preparation
1. Prepare the ingredients for making lazy khachapuri with cheese in a pan. Salt may not be needed if the cheese is salty enough. Instead of mozzarella, any melting cheese can be used.
2. Grate the cheese coarsely.
3. In a mixing bowl, add the egg and sugar. Combine them with a whisk.
4. Add the flour and baking powder.
5. Immediately pour in the milk.
6. Stir the mixture until smooth.
7. Now it's time for the main ingredient. Add the cheese to the dough and mix it in. The mixture should be gooey, not sliding off the spoon immediately.
8. Heat the frying pan well. If its diameter is slightly larger than specified, the flatbread will turn out flatter. Drizzle a little vegetable oil on the bottom and spread it across the pan so the flatbread easily flips.
9. Place half of the cheese dough here and flatten it with the back of a spoon across the entire diameter. Reduce the heat to a "below medium" level.
10. Cover the frying pan with a lid and start timing.
11. After 6-8 minutes, the top of the khachapuri will become matte, and the bottom will brown. It's important that the bottom does not burn, and the top has "set," meaning it has stopped being liquid. Therefore, the heat should be low.
12. Flip the flatbread over, cover again with the lid.
13. In just 2 minutes, you can transfer it to a plate. Fry the second khachapuri in the same way.
14. A hot, hearty, and fragrant breakfast is ready. The lazy khachapuri with cheese in a pan turned out porous, with melted cheese. Their salty taste goes perfectly with morning tea or coffee. Give it a try!
