The past tense of “to braai” is “braaied” in South African English. In other forms of English, you might also see “barbecued” as an alternative past tense for the act of cooking meat over an open flame. In this case, we are talking about fish and the art of grilling it on an open flame in typical South African fashion. (Braaiing)
