    Grate pecorino cheese and set aside. Drain white beans and add bread roll to a bowl of milk. Finely chop garlic, onion, anchovies, and half of the capers. Set the rest of the capers aside. Squeeze the softened bread roll to wring out some of the milk.

    Add some olive oil to a pot and cook the meatballs for approx. 5 min. Add onions and remaining garlic and fry until onions are glossy. Deglaze with white wine and let simmer for approx. 1 min.
