However, some dishes can be prepared quickly, for example, lazy khachapuri is a very tasty dish that is made with cheese or cottage cheese in a frying pan in just a few minutes. The word khachapuri is derived from the words “khacha” - cottage cheese, cheese and “puri” - bread or flatbread. That is, khachapuri is flatbread with cheese. An integral ingredient for any of the many khachapuri recipes will, of course, be cheese. The most commonly used are feta cheese, cottage cheese and suluguni. The recipe is called "lazy" because the cheese filling and dough are combined together into a dough, and this will greatly simplify and speed up the process of preparing them.
Georgian classic authentic khachapuri is prepared on the basis of fermented milk of goats, cows or sheep called matsoni. It is extremely difficult to get, and preparation is labor-intensive.
