Kutabs with Herbs and Adyghe Cheese

Kutabs are a traditional Azerbaijani flatbread: a thin round of unleavened dough folded over a filling of juicy herbs and cheese (or dry farmer's cheese). You can use just about any fresh herbs you like. Kutabs cook quickly on a dry, hot skillet, just until golden. While they're still hot, brush them with butter, stack them up, and serve with sour cream. Herb-and-cheese kutabs take only 30–40 minutes to make. Enjoy!

  • Pour the flour into a bowl, make a well in the center, add the salt and water, and knead a smooth dough by hand or in a stand mixer. Once the dough no longer sticks to your hands, it's ready. Let it rest for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, finely chop all the herbs and grate the cheese on the large holes of a box grater. Put the herbs and cheese in a large bowl, add salt and black pepper, and mix well. If you swap the Adyghe cheese for feta or suluguni, keep an eye on how much salt you add to the herbs — those cheeses can be salty, so you may need less salt or none at all. Divide the dough into small pieces of about 50 g each. Roll each piece into a thin round about 1/16 inch (1 mm) thick. Spread 2 tablespoons of filling over one half of the round, fold the other half over the filling, and press gently on top to push out any air; seal the edge well and trim off any excess dough. Heat a skillet, lower the heat to medium, and cook the kutabs on the dry pan for 2 minutes per side, until golden. Brush the finished kutabs with melted butter and stack them one on top of another. Serve with sour cream. Enjoy!
