- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place bread crumbs on cookie sheet and place in oven on center rack. Toss bread crumbs every couple of min, for about 5 to 7 min. Set aside to cold.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. of the extra virgin olive oil in a saute/fry pan over medium-low heat. Add in onions, cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Saute/fry onions till transparent, stirring occasionally about 5 to 7 min. Remove from heat, set aside and cold. Place sliced bread in a bowl and add in lowfat milk to cover. Soak till bread becomes soft, pressing on bread to absorb liquid. Drain excess lowfat milk. In a mixing bowl, combine grnd meats and sauteed onion with garlic, parsley, egg and lowfat milk-soaked bread. Work mix with your hands till ingredients are well combined. Add in toasted bread crumbs a bit at a time, thoroughly mixing with each addition. The meat mixutre should be moist to the touch, but not wet. Form meat into small balls about 1-inch in diameter.
- Set a large, heavy-bottomed saute/fry pan over medium heat and add in the remaining 3 Tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil. Heat till oil is warm, but not smoking. Cook meatballs, turning, till all sides are browned, about 5 min. Move meatballs from heat and drain on paper towels.
- Bring Red Sauce to a simmer and add in meatballs. Cook 25 to 30 min, uncovered.
- To serve, plate 4 meatballs per person, sprinkled with additional cumin, fresh parsley and drizzle with extra-virgin extra virgin olive oil.
