Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the drained tuna, cream cheese, mayonnaise, sweet corn, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined into a creamy filling.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets slightly to smooth out the edges.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares, yielding 8 squares in total.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the tuna mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.
Fold one corner of the square diagonally over to the opposite corner to form a triangle. Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal the pies.
Brush the tops of the puff pies with the beaten egg to achieve a golden, shiny finish during baking.
Transfer the prepared pies to the lined baking tray, spacing them slightly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the puff pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Allow the tuna puff pies to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
