Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out each puff pastry sheet to ensure even thickness.
Spread 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard evenly over each puff pastry sheet.
Layer the ham slices evenly across the puff pastry, leaving a small border along the edges.
Top the ham with Swiss cheese slices, ensuring even coverage.
Starting from one long edge, roll up the pastry tightly into a log. Repeat with the second sheet.
Trim the uneven edges of the logs, then slice each log into 1-inch (2.5 cm) thick spirals.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Place the spirals on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece. Brush the tops with the egg wash.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the spirals are golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
