Stir in bread, cumin, dried apricots, garlic, parsley. Combine well then add the egg, salt and pepper. The mixture should be quite moist and a little sticky.rnPut the flour on a plate and form quenelle out of the dough. Dip in flour.rnHeat some canola oil in a pan and fry on all sides on medium heat. About 10 minutes but that depends on the size of you quenelles. The outside should be crispy and the inside soft.
