  3. Clean the cod of bones and skins and shred it to pieces using your hands.

  6. Open a lid on the top of the bread and scoop it out the crumb (keep the crumb aside).
  7. Add a little of the hot cooking water from cooking the cod and collard greens to the inside of the bread, just to slightly soften it.

  9. Add the pepper, coriander, sweet pepper, cod and collard greens, mixing everything for a few minutes.

  11. Sir and add a little cooking water from the cod and collard greens until you have a good consistency.
