Soup with Meatballs and Lentils in an Autoclave

Meatball soup with lentils is a perfect solution for those who love homemade soups but don’t always have time to cook daily. With the autoclave, you can prepare a delicious soup in advance and have a complete meal ready for lunch or dinner at any time.

This recipe combines red lentils, tender meatballs, vegetables, and a light touch of bay leaf. The result is a rich, hearty broth in a jar that doesn’t need additional cooking — just heat it up and enjoy.

The lentils cook down to a creamy consistency, making the soup thicker, while the meatballs remain whole and juicy. Carrots, onions, and corn add a subtle sweetness and vibrant color. These ingredients give the soup a deep, balanced flavor, and autoclave sterilization helps preserve the tenderness of the meat and the integrity of the vegetables.

Heated meatball soup pairs well with fresh bread, croutons, or dumplings. You can also add a spoonful of sour cream or sprinkle fresh herbs on top before serving. Canned soup is a great lunch or dinner solution that takes just minutes to prepare.

Lentil soup recipe for 4 jars, 0.5 liters each.

First, it’s fast — prepare once and have a ready-made first course you can open anytime during the year. Second, long shelf life — canned soup in a jar keeps for months without losing its flavor. And most importantly — safety: sterilization at 110°C for 40 minutes ensures full readiness and eliminates bacteria. Get inspired by exciting recipes and cook with UTEHO!
