METHOD 1
1. Divide the dough into the required number of portions. Working with each portion separately, flatten into a disc with your fingertips with flour, and roll into a 5- to 6-inch circle.
2. Brush the top surface lightly with oil, sprinkle on the spices, herbs, or vegetables, if you are using them, then sprinkle about 1 teaspoon dry flour over the spices, and roll it into a rope 7 to 8 inches long and 1/2 inch in diameter. Brush the rope with oil.
3. Starting from one end, wind the rope in a spiral fashion into a coil, with all sides touching. Flatten this coil with your fingertips, coat in with flour, then roll it into a 6- to 7-inch circle.
METHOD 2
1. Roll the dough into a 5- 6-inch circle. Brush the top surface lightly with oil, sprinkle on the spices, herbs, or vegetables, if you are using them, then sprinkle about 1 teaspoon dry flour over the spices.
2. Make a cut from the center to the edge (along a radius), then start rolling the dough up from the cat edge sidesways around the center, ending at the second edge, forming a cone.
3. Brush the cone lightly with oil, then press the pointed end into the wider, rounder end to form a disc. Coat this disc with flour, and roll into a 6- to 7-inch circle again.
