Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry sheet (if needed) into a rectangle roughly 12x10 inches.
Place the ham slices evenly across the puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
Layer the cheese slices evenly over the ham.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash.
Starting from one long side, carefully roll the pastry into a log, sealing the edge with the egg wash.
Use a sharp knife to cut the roll into 8 equal pieces, and place them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
