- 2) 1, 5 glasses of milk;
- 3) 6 eggs;
- 4) 2 glasses of sugar;
- 5) 0.5 teaspoon of salt;
- 6) 4 tablespoons of sour cream;
- 7) 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil;

Step 1
Prepare a dough: crush 50 g of yeast into a bowl and sprinkle it with a little sugar - they will spread, pour 0.5 cups of warm milk into it, add flour and knead the dough to the thickness of sour cream. Place the dough in a warm place to rise.

Set it to come up twice (after the first time, wrap it up and let it rise a second time).

While the dough is coming up, prepare the poppy filling. To do this, rinse the poppy with hot water, then cover with water and bring to a boil. Drain the water and let the poppy cool. After cooling, turn it in a meat grinder twice and mix well with 1 cup of sugar until you get a viscous mass like jam.
