Poppy Seed Strudel
Description
To prepare this dish, I use ready-made dough purchased from the store, but if you prefer the recipe to be completely homemade, you can make the dough yourself. You can make strudel using yeast or puff pastry dough. As a filling, in addition to poppy seeds, you can add nuts, berries, or dried fruits.

2. Pour boiling water over the dry poppy seeds, place on heat and cook for a few minutes, then drain through a sieve and mix with sugar. Spread the prepared filling onto the dough. Fold the top and bottom edges of the dough inward, then roll it up into a log so the filling stays inside.
