Preheat oven to 375°F. Trim the tops off the spring onions and reserve. Halve the onions. In a large mixing bowl toss the onions in the olive oil and salt and pepper. Place on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and roast for 15-20 minutes.
Oil the grill, season the shrimp with salt and white pepper and grill.
