Tap a step when it is done.

Preheat a conventional/static oven to 180°C (350°F).
Unroll the puff pastry into a 22–24 cm (9-inch) pan with the parchment paper underneath and press gently to fit the base and sides.
Cut the ham into strips and dice the mozzarella, patting it dry if watery.
Whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Spread the ham and mozzarella evenly over the pastry.
Pour the egg mixture on top and fold the pastry edges slightly inward.
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 25–30 minutes, until golden and set.
Let the pie rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Buon appetito!
