Sinori
Sinori is a traditional Adjarian dish from Georgia, characterized by thin layers of unleavened dough (yufka or lavash) baked with a rich mixture of cheese curds (nadughi or ricotta), butter, and garlic. It's known for its comforting, slightly tangy, and buttery flavor profile.
🧂 Ingrédients
- 3 layers Thin unleavened dough sheets (yufka or lavash)(about 30x40 cm each)
- 700 g Nadughi (or ricotta/cottage cheese)
- 200 g Butter(melted)
- 2 Garlic cloves(minced)
- Salt(to taste)
- 50 ml Water(optional, to help cheese mixture combine)
- 1 Egg(beaten, optional for brushing dough)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). If using lavash, you might want to lightly toast the sheets for a minute or two to make them more pliable.
- 2
In a bowl, combine the nadughi (or ricotta/cottage cheese) with minced garlic and salt to taste. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water to achieve a spreadable consistency.
💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure the cheese mixture is well-seasoned. - 3
Lay out one sheet of dough. Spread a generous layer of the cheese mixture over it. If desired, brush lightly with melted butter or the egg mixture.

Place another sheet of dough on top and repeat the layering process. Continue with the remaining sheets, ending with a layer of dough.
💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure even distribution of the cheese mixture. - 5
Roll the layered dough tightly into a log or 'roulette'. Cut the log into slices about 2 cm (¾ inch) wide.
- 6
Arrange the slices vertically in a buttered baking dish, packing them closely together.
- 7
Pour the melted butter evenly over the top of the Sinori slices. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
💡 Conseils de pro: Watch carefully to prevent burning. - 8
Serve warm, with extra melted butter or a dollop of yogurt on the side if desired.
💡 Conseils de pro
