Khachapuri
Moderate nutritional value
Adjarian khachapuri: Georgian cheese bread boat with egg and butter.
This is Adjarian khachapuri: a boat of yeast dough filled with brined cheeses such as sulguni and imeruli, baked until bubbling, then topped with an egg and a knob of butter that are stirred into the hot cheese at the table. It gives protein from the cheese and egg but is high in energy, saturated fat and sodium, on a base of refined flour. One boat is a full meal; half a boat with a salad is a lighter plate.
