• First make the date filling: in a food processor, blend together the filling ingredients until you get an almost smooth, jam like consistency. If very dry, blend in water, a teaspoon at a time, until smooth and jam like.
• Next prepare the rose custard: divide the ready-made custard equally into two bowls. Into half of it, stir the raw tahini and into the other, mix the ground pistachios
  
  To prepare the hamantaschen:
• Preheat oven to 180°C (fan) and line an oven tray with baking parchment.
• In a medium bowl, cream the butter with an electric mixer. Add sugar and beat until smooth. Add the egg yolks and vanilla and continue to beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.
• Add 225g of the flour and blend at low speed until thoroughly combined.
• Sprinkle flour on to your work surface and using a floured rolling pin — the dough will be sticky — roll the dough until ½ cm thick. Using a 4-5cm diameter cookie cutter or shot glass, cut out circles and place them on the lined oven tray, 2cm apart from each other.
• Continue until you’ve used all the dough scraps, rerolling and cutting until almost all dough is used.
• Drop ½ tsp of filling in the centre of each circle, then fold in three sides of the circle to create a triangle shape and almost cover all the filling. Do half with one filling and half with the other.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges begin to brown.
• When you serve, scatter with orange zest, pistachios, rose petals.
