Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a 10×15-inch (25×38 cm) jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar until thick and pale (5–7 minutes).
Add vanilla extract.
Sift in flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold gently to combine.
Spread batter evenly in the pan.
Bake 10–12 minutes, or until the top springs back when touched.
While hot, turn cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
Peel off parchment and roll the cake up with the towel. Let cool completely.
Dissolve strawberry gelatin in ½ cup boiling water.
Stir in ½ cup cold water. Let it cool until slightly thickened but not fully set (refrigerate 20–30 minutes).
Fold in whipped cream and diced strawberries gently.
Carefully unroll the cooled sponge cake.
Spread the jello mousse evenly over the cake.
Re-roll the cake (without the towel) tightly.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours.
Trim the ends for a clean look.
Top with whipped cream, strawberries, and mint if desired.
Slice and serve chilled.
