Flour your work surface and roll out a ball of pizza dough by hand. Garnish with half the mozzarella, slices of mortadella, pistachios, basil leaves, a pinch of pepper and a drizzle of olive oil, leaving the edges bare. Fold the dough to form a slipper, gathering the edges to close your panzerotti as well as possible.
Preheat the oil to 180°C in a cast iron casserole dish that is less than half full. Gently dip your slipper and brown for a few minutes. Remove from the oil and set aside on absorbent paper, let cool for a few minutes and serve with the tomato sauce.
