Bulgarian Bird of Paradise Bread - Khliab Raiska Ptitsa - is a yeast bread that gets its name from the decorative placement of cheese, ham, olives and red pepper on the top. If you like a thick slice of cheese as I do, the bread will have a sunken middle, which is OK. But the rising dough will be better able to support thin slices of cheese and ham so the entire top is puffed up.
