Hachapuri (Georgian Cheese Stuffed Bread)

This recipe is originally from Nigella Lawson's cookbook Feast, and is a go-to recipe for my friend Sarah. I have never made it myself, though I have helped her make it a couple of times. She usually makes it for large groups that I happen to be part of, and I'm never mad about that.

This particular day I was helping her cook dinner after a day of promotion tests for the university's  tae kwon do club, where she and my husband met and befriended each other many years ago. This bread was on the menu because people keep asking for it. Nigella describes its appeal quite nicely but I'll also add my own opinions: I love it because it's warm, comforting, and incredibly filling. The fact that it is usually made for me by people I love only adds an extra layer to those feelings.
