Cheese Khychiny on Sparkling Water

Thin, mouthwatering stuffed flatbreads! So good! Khychiny (Caucasian filled flatbreads) are wonderfully versatile — make the filling sweet to serve with tea, or savory to serve with soup. They're also great as a main course, since they're really filling. And so tasty! Especially with Adyghe cheese (a mild, fresh cheese similar to feta or paneer).

  • Sift the flour into a bowl, add the salt, pour in the sparkling water and kefir, and knead the dough. Let it rest for 20 to 30 minutes; the dough should be springy and elastic. Now make the filling: grate the cheese and finely chop the washed and dried dill. Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Roll the balls out into thin rounds. Place the filling in the center of each round, gather the edges of the dough up over the top, and pinch them together tightly into a sealed pouch. Gently roll each pouch out into a round about 6 inches (15 cm) across and 1/6 inch (4 mm) thick, taking care not to tear the dough. Fry the khychiny in a little vegetable oil. When a flatbread puffs up, that's your cue to flip it — same on the other side, and once it puffs again, take it off the pan. Brush the finished khychiny with melted butter, stack them on top of each other, cut into quarters, and serve. Enjoy!
