Add the soaked bread and milk to the mixture making sure you chop up  
the bread with your spoon or spatula so that it gets evenly distributed.  
Stir in the nuts and the apricots, then add the lemon juice. Season the  
mixture.  
Put the mixture into a baking dish, smooth it out and stand the leaves in  
it so that they can be removed later. If you re using lemon zest then just  
scatter it over the mixture. Bake for 5-10 minutes while you make the  
topping.
