Puff pastry with ham and cheese

Ingredients:

• 1 package (2 sheets) frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 120 gr. Black Forest ham, cut into slices
• 250 g Swiss Gruyere cheese, sliced
• 1 egg, beaten with 1 tbsp. water, for greasing the dough

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 230°C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
2. Place 1 sheet of dough on a floured surface and carefully roll it out to a size of 25 x 30 cm. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet and spread with mustard, leaving a 2.5 cm border around the edges. Place a layer of ham on top of the mustard, then a layer of cheese. Brush the edges with the egg mixture.
3. Place the second sheet of dough on a floured board and carefully roll it out to a size of 25 x 30 cm. Then transfer it to the first sheet with the filling, matching the edges. Trim the edges with a small sharp knife and press them into place. Brush the top with egg wash and make a few slits to allow steam to escape while baking.
4. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the dough is puffed and golden brown. Cool the finished puff pastry for a few minutes and serve hot or warm.
