Traditional Georgian Braised Shrimp Flatbread

Assemble the ingredients: shrimp, black pepper, bay leaf, garlic, paprika, olive oil, yogurt.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the shrimp and cook until braised.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Georgian flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Georgian accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
