Imeruli Khachapuri

Imeruli khachapuri hails, not surprisingly, from the central region of Imereti and it’s essentially a flat bread stuffed with buttery Imeruli cheese curds and cooked on the stovetop. While adajruli’s dough is closer to that of pizza’s - with a satisfying crackle when you break off a piece - imeruli’s is soft, tender, and melts in your mouth.

Cheesy Cauliflower and Leek Gratin

I’ve adapted the recipe to whatever melty cheese you might have in the fridge. A sharp cheddar, gruyere, gouda, raclette… all work well here. I can imagine this would also be delicious with broccoli and onions, cumin and red pepper flakes substituted for the thyme and nutmeg. Sounds delicious, right?
