Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm water and instant yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy. This indicates the yeast is active.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the activated yeast mixture and 1 tbsp olive oil. Mix with a spoon or spatula until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. The dough should spring back slowly when poked.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
First rise: Lightly grease a clean bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
⏱️ 1 hour 30 minutes - 4
Prepare the cheese filling: While the dough is rising, combine the shredded mozzarella and crumbled feta cheese in a medium bowl. If using eggs in the filling, whisk in 2 eggs until well combined. Set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Shape the khachapuri: Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll or stretch each portion into an oval or rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick. To form the boat shape, roll up two opposite long edges towards the center, creating a raised border. Pinch the ends together firmly to seal and form the 'boat' shape. Ensure the ends are well-sealed to prevent cheese leakage.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 6
Fill and bake: Preheat your oven to 260°C (500°F). Place the shaped dough boats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Generously fill each boat with the cheese mixture, spreading it evenly within the borders. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 7
Add the egg and butter: Carefully remove the khachapuri from the oven. Make a well in the center of the hot cheese filling of each boat and crack one egg into it. Place a piece of butter on top of the cheese near the egg. Return the khachapuri to the oven and bake for another 3-5 minutes, just until the egg whites are set but the yolk remains runny. The cheese should be molten and the egg yolk should be glistening.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 8
Serve immediately: Remove from the oven and serve hot. Instruct diners to swirl the runny egg yolk and melted butter into the cheese filling with a fork, then tear off pieces of the crusty bread to dip and enjoy.
