In a bowl, combine the soaked bread, eggs, minced garlic, pecorino romano, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix well to form a dough.

Shape the mixture into small balls (polpette).

Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the polpette until golden brown.

For the sauce, heat olive oil in a pot, add minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant.

Add the passata di pomodoro and basil to the pot, season with salt, and simmer for a few minutes.
