In a small bowl, mix the active dry yeast, sugar, and warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and Greek yogurt. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 240°C (475°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into two equal portions.
Shape each portion into an oval or boat shape on the parchment paper, leaving space in the center for the filling.
In a separate bowl, mix together the feta, mozzarella, and ricotta cheeses.
Fill the center of each dough 'boat' with the cheese mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
Meanwhile, poach the eggs: Fill a saucepan with water and bring it to a simmer. Crack each egg into a separate small bowl. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water and gently drop one egg into the center. Allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and repeat with the other egg.
Place a poached egg on top of each baked khachapuri.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy immediately!
