All is good until you get to the cooking. In the picture it looks like you are rolling the vegetable covered dough, as to make pinwheels - but you say nothing about slicing it into pieces to cook it. Do you put the whole rolled veg & dough wrapped around in the fry pan? The cooked pieces also look round, as if they have been sliced from the rolled dough before cooking??
