Place the bread in a shallow baking dish. Pour the milk over the bread and  
let sit for a couple of minutes. In a mixing bowl, combine all of the meats  
together. Season with salt and pepper. Add the minced onions, 1 tablespoon  
garlic, parsley and bread. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Form the  
mixture into small balls. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil.  
When the oil is hot add the meatballs and brown for 4 to 6 minutes. Remove  
from the pan and drain on paper towels. In a large saucepan, heat the  
remaining oil. Add the chopped onions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for  
4
to 5 minutes or until the onions are soft and clear in color. Add the  
remaining garlic and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 30  
minutes. Whisk the tomato paste and water together. Add to the tomatoes. Add  
the meatballs. Bring the liquid to a boil, over high heat. Turn the heat  
down to medium−low and simmer for 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Reseason  
with salt and pepper. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta  
and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain.  
Drizzle the pasta with olive oil. Season the pasta with salt and pepper.  
Using a box grater, grate the cheese. To serve, mound the pasta in the  
center of each bowl. Spoon the meat balls and sauce over the pasta. Garnish  
with the grated cheese. This recipe yields 4 servings.
