Cut in half, then cut each half into four 3-1/2 inch squares. Place a rounded teaspoon of filling on each square. Moisten edges of dough; fold dough in half over filling and shape into crescent. Repeat with second half of package. Beat egg yolk lightly with water. Brush over pastries; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Heat shortening to 360 degrees. Fry pastries a few at a time for about 4 minutes, turning frequently. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
