Steps

    To braid the fish: Using kitchen scissors, cut three lengthwise slits in each fillet without cutting all the way through, and braid. You can then grease a round dish and place the braids in it, baking for 10 minutes in an oven at 175 degrees Celsius. Alternatively, you can fry the fish in a pan and wrap it when serving.
