Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Dust your work surface with a little all-purpose flour and roll out the puff pastry sheet into a rectangle approximately 30cm x 20cm (12in x 8in).
In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, chopped dill, lemon zest, and ground black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 2cm (1in) border around the edges.
Layer the smoked salmon slices evenly on top of the cream cheese mixture.
Carefully roll up the puff pastry from one of the longer sides to create a tight log. Pinch the seam to seal it and tuck in the ends.
Place the rolled pastry seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the top and sides of the pastry with the beaten egg to give it a golden finish when baked.
Using a sharp knife, score the top of the pastry lightly with diagonal slits for decoration, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing into portions.
Serve warm as an appetizer or as a main dish with a light salad on the side.
