2. Sift 300 g of wheat flour into a deep bowl. Mix the yeast thoroughly and pour into the sifted flour. We begin to knead the dough. Since the flour is different for everyone, if you see that the dough is too thick, you can add 1 tbsp. l warm water.
   
3. Knead the dough thoroughly with your hands, picking up all the flour.
   
4. Then in two stages we add vegetable oil. As soon as the first part went into the dough, add the second. We continue to knead until the structure is as homogeneous as possible for about 5-7 minutes, and even longer if desired.
   
5. We grease the bowl and dough with vegetable oil and set in heat for 40-60 minutes to rise.
   
6. Grate 350 g of suluguni cheese on a coarse grater.
   
7. Add the protein of 1 egg to it, and leave the yolk to grease the dough. If the cheese is not too salty, then you can still salt.
   
8. Kneading everything with the help of a crush. Add 50 ml of ordinary water (you can use liquid cream or milk), as well as 1/2 tbsp. l flour.
   
9. We approach the dough, without crushing, lay on the table, divide into 2 parts, without breaking airiness. For a more accurate weight, you can use a kitchen scale.
   
10. Add a little flour and form a round cake with a diameter of 26 cm and a thickness of about 5-7 mm. On the edges of the path we spread the cheese filling.
    
11. Turn to form a boat. The ends are connected. In the same way we form the second boat.
    
12. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. We put parchment on top of the hot baking sheet. Gently distribute the boats on a baking sheet and distribute the filling inside them. Grease khachapuri with a loose egg. Also, if desired, sprinkle the edges of the dough with grated cheese.
    
13. We put in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes to the ruddy top.
    
14. When the khachapuri turns red, we make a hole inside and put the yolk in it. You can use a whole egg, but then it will take another minute to hold the khachapuri in the oven.
    
15. At the end, add a few pieces of butter.
    
16. Khajapuri in Ajarian style is served immediately from the oven. Mix the egg with cheese, and then tear off the slices of bread and dip in the filling. Enjoy your meal!
