Homemade yeast roll with poppy seed filling: tastier than store-bought pastries

Instead of buying store-bought pastries for tea, make a fluffy poppy seed roll from yeast dough at home. You can do it even if you've never made this dessert before. The most important thing is to make the sourdough correctly so that the mass rises.

7. Grease a bowl with a little oil, put the dough, cover and leave in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours.
