Here's a recipe I absolutely love making when I want something quick and satisfying. Griddled salad onions with garlicky tomato sauce comes together in just seventeen minutes, making it perfect for busy weeknights. The beauty of this dish is its simplicity and cost effectiveness, since you probably have most ingredients at home already. Tomatoes are packed with lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that's brilliant for your heart health. The charred onions develop this gorgeous sweetness on the griddle, which plays beautifully against the punchy garlic and chilli in the sauce. It's comfort food that feels a bit special, without any fuss.

It's basically a one bowl wonder that never fails to impress.
