Roll out portions of the dough into an oval five millimeters thick, pierce the dough around the perimeter with a toothpick to release excess air. Put about 150 grams of filling in the center and pinch an oval in the shape of a boat.
Put khachapuri in an oven preheated to 220 degrees for 15 minutes, a minute before it is ready, break an egg into the middle of the pie so that the yolk remains in the center.
Before serving, place a couple of pieces of butter on top of the egg yolk.
