Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the 1 cup sliced strawberries, 1 cup blackberries, 3 tbsp sugar, and 1 tbsp cornstarch. Toss gently to coat the fruit evenly.
Step 3
Roll out the 1 puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to a 12x12 inch square. Spoon the fruit mixture down the center, leaving a 2-inch border on each side.
Step 4
Fold the pastry over the filling and pinch the edges to seal. Place the strudel seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Brush the top with the beaten egg. Cut 3 small slits on top for steam to escape.
Step 6
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is puffed and deep golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
Step 7
Serve warm slices with a dollop of the 0.5 cup whipped cream and garnish with the 4 mint leaves.
