The easiest way to make khachapuri in the mergel style: you don't need to roll the dough thinly
One of the easiest variants of khachapuri preparation is mergelski. Here the cheese is simply wrapped in the dough and there is no need to roll it out thinly or knead it for a long time. The texture turns out very soft and elastic, so the base can be easily formed with your hands.
