Soak the bread in milk and add to the bowl, together with an egg (beat first), salt and pepper. Knead until all the ingredients are mixed together, then make balls and roll in flour. Fry in plenty of hot oil until golden brown, then shake off any oil and place in a casserole.
Strain part of the oil used to fry the meatballs to prepare the following sauce, chop the onion and two cloves of garlic and sauté in a frying pan. When they begin to brown, add the chopped tomato.
Cook for 5 minutes and add a glass of white wine. Boil for three more minutes, then strain the sauce over the meatballs.
