3. Season the beef with salt, black pepper, paprika, cumin, and oregano. Stir well and cook for another 2–3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

4. Lay a wrapper flat on a clean surface. Spoon a line of the beef mixture down the center, then sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over the beef.

5. Fold the sides inward and roll tightly, sealing the edge with a little water or beaten egg. Repeat until all filling is used.

6. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Fry the rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides.

7. Remove the rolls and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Let them rest for a minute before serving.
