Rice pudding in the oven
Description
You can prepare kutya in the oven using wheat. Soak the wheat for several hours, then place it in a pot together with nuts and dried fruits, and bake in the oven until cooked, about an hour. While the kutya is cooking, prepare the poppy seeds. Soak them in boiling water for 15 minutes. Then drain the water, add a little cold water, and grind the poppy seeds. Strain the resulting "poppy milk" through a cloth and add it to the cooked kutya. Chill before serving.
