Cut the tops off the tomatoes and carefully hollow them out. Place them cut-side down on kitchen paper to drain. Season the insides of the tomatoes with salt and pepper. Fill each tomato with a cube of feta or mozzarella and a basil leaf. Wrap one slice of raw ham around each tomato. Roll out the puff pastry on a work surface and use a round dish to cut out approximately 8 cm discs. Place each wrapped tomato on a plate and seal with the puff pastry. Place seam-down on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Brush with egg yolk and sprinkle 6 tomatoes with poppy seeds and 6 tomatoes with sesame seeds. Bake in an oven preheated to 200 °C for approximately 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
