Cook 10 mins

Serving 1

Ingredients

  • Thin lavash – a sheet of about 15×20 cm
  • Egg – 1 pc.
  • Suluguni cheese – 30 g
  • Butter – 25 g
  • Salt to taste
  • Water – for wetting lavash

Directions

  1. Prepare all the ingredients you need.
    I had a large lavash, I cut it into 4 parts, from one of them (15×20 cm) and cooked youku.
    For yoki, it is customary to use suluguni cheese.
  2. First of all, you need to dip pita bread in cold water for a couple of seconds. Alternatively, hold for a second under a stream of cold running water. The second method is more convenient.
  3. Along with this, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the moistened pita bread on one side until lightly blush.
  4. Flip the pita bread to the other side.
  5. In the center of the pita bread, immediately put the cheese grated on a coarse grater in a slide, make a small depression in the center for the egg.
  6. Break the egg onto the cheese, being careful not to damage the yolk. Lightly salt the egg. If the cheese is too salty, salt can be eliminated.
  7. Immediately wrap the pita bread in a triangle, covering the cheese and egg filling.  Fry the pita bread on one side for a minute, then turn over and fry for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. During this time, the egg white will set and the yolk will remain liquid
  8. Serve youku right after cooking. Enjoy your meal!
