Prepare the beef by slicing it thinly against the grain.

Marinate the beef with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and lime juice for at least 30 minutes.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Sauté onions and bell peppers until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add carrots and cook for another 2-3 minutes until tender.

Stir in coriander, cumin, and paprika, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

Remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, cook the marinated beef until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Lay a tortilla wrap flat and place a portion of the beef and vegetable mixture in the center.

Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in the sides as you go.

Place the rolled ugaroll seam-side down in the skillet.

Cook the ugaroll on all sides until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before slicing.

Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
