1 Combine the pork, veal, garlic, spices, bread crumbs, egg and some salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix by hand until fairly smooth and leaving the side of the bowl. Refrigerate, covered, for 30 minutes.
2 Roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a skillet and toss half the meatballs over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, or until browned. Drain on paper towels. Add the remaining oil if necessary and brown the rest of the meatballs. Drain on paper towels.
3 To make the spicy tomato sauce, heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes, or until transparent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Increase the heat to high, add the wine and allow to boil for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste and stock and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the cayenne pepper, peas and meatballs. Simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until thick and the meatballs are coated in sauce. Serve hot.
