Warm milk and sugar, crumble yeast into it and dissolve it. Put flour, salt and eggs in a bowl. Add yeast milk and 1 dash of fruit brandy and knead to a smooth dough. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 40 minutes. In the meantime mix poppy seeds, hazelnuts, 2 tablespoons of fruit brandy, honey and jam. Knead the dough again and roll out 2-3 mm thick on a floured work surface. Place 1 teaspoon of the filling on one half of the dough every 6 cm.
Fold the remaining half of the dough over it and press the dough well around the filling. Use a cookie cutter to cut out flowers (6 cm Ø). Knead the rest of the dough again and process in the same way. Heat oil in a pot and fry dough pockets in portions until golden brown. Take out with a skimmer and drain on kitchen paper. Dust with icing sugar and serve decorated with mint
