Method:

Preheat the oven at 180.
Soak the bread in milk.
In a large pot, fry the onions until cooked and slightly golden.
Add all the spices and cook until the pot looks dry.
Remove and set aside.
Fry the mince in batches until browned.
Combine the mince and the onion mixture with the jam, chopped apricots, sugar and seasoning.
Remove the bread from the milk (put the milk aside) and mix into the mince mixture.
Spoon the mixture into a greased, oven proof dish and with the back of a spoon, ‘squash’ the mixture down.

Beat well and pour over the mince mixture.
Place bay leaves over the top and put in the oven for 30 minutes.
