Lazy Khachapuri — 5-Minute Cheesy Skillet Flatbread

This is the famous “lazy khachapuri” — all the cheesy joy of Georgian cheese bread with about five minutes of effort and one bowl. You just stir everything together and pan-fry it like a pancake. The result is golden, crisp at the edges, and wonderfully gooey inside. Kids love it, and it makes a perfect quick breakfast for the whole family.

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon cottage cheese or sour cream
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons grated cheese (suluguni, mozzarella, or any melty cheese)
• Salt, to taste

Instructions

1. Crack the egg into a bowl and beat lightly.
2. Add the cottage cheese (or sour cream), flour, and grated cheese.
3. Stir until smooth and uniform.
4. Cook in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat, a few minutes per side, until golden brown.

Tips

Use a non-stick skillet and medium — not high — heat so the cheese melts before the outside burns. Add fresh herbs like dill or parsley to the batter for extra flavor. Nutrition (per 100 g): 176 kcal | Protein 17.4 g | Fat 6.6 g | Carbs 14.9 g.
