- Use your hands to roll dough into a 24cm-long log. Use a small sharp knife to cut dough into 24 slices. Use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll one dough portion into a 10cm-diameter disc. Repeat with remaining portions.
- Brush one side of a disc with extra sesame oil and sprinkle with shallots. Roll up tightly to enclose shallots. Roll up lengthways to make a coil. Use a rolling pin to roll out into a 10cm-diameter disc. Repeat with remaining discs, sesame oil and shallots.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Brush with extra vegetable oil to lightly grease. Cook 2 pancakes at a time for 1 minute each side or until golden. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with remaining pancakes. Serve on a platter with chicken.
