Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry sheet if necessary to ensure it is even and smooth.
Cut the Havarti cheese into small slices or cubes. Set aside.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the water to create an egg wash. Set aside.
Sprinkle the finely chopped parsley and black pepper evenly over the puff pastry sheet.
Cut the puff pastry into 8 equal squares.
Place a slice or cube of Havarti cheese in the center of each square.
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges together gently to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative finish.
Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Brush the tops of the pastries with the egg wash to help them achieve a golden-brown color when baked.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Allow the pastries to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm as a savory treat.
