Roll out the dough into a thin rectangle.

Brush the surface with vegetable oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Evenly distribute chopped spring onions over the surface.

Roll the dough tightly into a log, then coil it into a spiral.

Flatten the spiral gently with your hands.

Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.

Slice into wedges and serve hot.
