Knead the yeast dough again and roll out into a rectangle (approx. 50x40 cm) on a floured work surface. Spread the dough with egg white. Sprinkle with chocolate, apricots and pistachios and press on. Roll up from the long side. Cut the roll in half lengthwise, except for an end that is about 5 cm wide. Twist the strands of dough into a cord. Place diagonally on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Leave to rise for another 15 minutes. Brush with the whisked egg yolk.
