To prepare a lavash pie with cheese in the oven, take the necessary ingredients. The greens need to be washed and dried.
Adyghe cheese can be replaced with cottage cheese, just be sure to rub it through a fine sieve, this will make the filling much tastier. Of the hard cheeses in this pie, cheese with the taste of baked milk performs well. Grate the cheeses on a coarse grater.
Chop the green onions, dill and parsley and add to the filling.
Salt and pepper the filling to taste, stir.
Beat eggs with sour cream in a convenient bowl. If the sour cream is thick, add a little kefir or liquid natural yogurt. Salt and pepper the filling to taste.
Now you need to line the baking dish with pita bread so that the edges hang down. Place another small piece of pita bread on the bottom so that the bottom of the pie is not wet. Grease the bottom with sour cream and eggs.
Place half of the cheese filling and lightly pour over the filling.
Cover the filling with pita bread, grease it with filling.
Place the remaining filling and lightly pour our filling of sour cream and eggs over it.
Cover the pie with the hanging edges of the pita bread, tuck them in on all sides and pour over the filling. Place the lavash cheese pie in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, for 20-25 minutes.

Moderately salted Georgian cheese with an elastic consistency is excellent for frying and baking.
Shall we prepare lavash with herbs and suluguni cheese?
Ingredients:
- thin pita bread - 1 piece;
- suluguni – 100 grams;
- green onions and dill – 100 grams;
- salt and pepper - to taste.
- egg (raw) – 1 piece.
- vegetable oil – 30 grams.
- Finely chop the greens.
- Add suluguni, chopped on a coarse grater, to the onion and dill. Salt and pepper. Mix.
- Unroll a rectangular sheet of pita bread. Sprinkle it with a mixture of cheese and fresh herbs in an even layer.
- We twist the roll and dip it in the egg so that during frying a golden crispy crust forms.
- Fry the roll on both sides.
There is another way to wrap suluguni in pita bread.

I will continue the theme of using Armenian lavash in cooking and prepare crispy envelopes - fried lavash with cheese and herbs in a frying pan. They are great for a hot breakfast or lunch.
To make the fried dough crispy, you need to choose the right tortillas; they come in different qualities. At the moment, I know three types of thin Armenian lavash.
Two of them are sold in the form of large flat cakes with uneven edges; they differ in color (white with tan marks and speckled, like a pancake) and density: white is denser, red is looser. The third type is called lavash roll and is sold in one sheet with smooth edges in the form of a roll.
To fry pita bread with cheese and herbs in a frying pan until deliciously crispy, the first two options are suitable for you. They are thinner and softer. I use the same sheets for cooking; in my opinion, the lavash roll is too thick and is only suitable for making achma or pizza.
The process of preparing pita bread with cheese filling will take very little time, 15 minutes at most.
Lavash envelopes with cheese and herbs
for 2 servings
- thin Armenian lavash - 2 sheets
- 300 grams of cheese (Adyghe, feta cheese, suluguni - you can use a mixture of cheeses)
- 2-3 sprigs of parsley
- a couple of sprigs of dill
- frying oil
Cheese filling with herbs
I consider it necessary to say a few words about the filling. You can use any cheese in lavash envelopes, even Russian. But! It’s best to make them with cheeses such as Adyghe, Suluguni, feta cheese and Imeretian cheese (if you can find it).
When melted, they acquire the necessary consistency and creamy curd taste. Then, when semi-hard cheeses (Russian, Kostromskoy, etc.), although they melt perfectly, when cooling they turn into a not very pleasant rubbery substance.
However, if you fill the envelopes with different types of cheese, that is, use a mixture, then a small percentage of semi-hard cheeses (about 30%) show only their best side. By the way, this recipe for fried pita bread with cheese is perfect for recycling pieces of cheese that can no longer be cut for the table.
- Grate the cheese (I have a mixture of feta cheese, Adyghe and Suluguni) on a coarse grater. If it's not salty enough, add a little salt.
- Wash the greens and dry with a paper towel. Chop the parsley and dill leaves as finely as possible and add them to the previously chopped cheese.
- Mix the cheese mixture thoroughly.
- Try the filling, if desired, its taste can be made more piquant. To do this, use dry garlic and hot red pepper.
How to fry pita bread with cheese in a frying pan
Let's prepare pita bread for the envelopes. Unfold both sheets, place them on top of each other and cut down the middle. Thus, you received four plates in which we will wrap the filling.
Attention!!! If you are using large sheets, it would be advisable to trim them slightly. The thicker rounded ends should be cut off. When using small sheets, this may not be necessary.
- Spread the prepared piece with the wide side facing you, and place a fourth of the filling in the middle.
- Distribute the cheese filling with herbs in a rectangle in the center of the pita bread, so that the length of the ends to the right and left of the filling is equal to the size of the filling.
- Fold the pita bread over the cheese on top and bottom. You have a long strip of dough with filling inside.
- Now we bend one end of the bundle up, the other down. Thus, there will be the same amount of dough on both the top and bottom of the envelope.
The envelopes are ready, now all that remains is to fry the pita bread with cheese and herbs in a frying pan. Heat a bowl with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and place our envelopes in it. Fry them alternately on both sides. It will take no more than 3-5 minutes. We also fry the second batch of our dish.
