      After it gets translucent, add a knife-tip’s worth of minced garlic from the jar… Some salt and pepper.

      From there you’re making anything from soup to pasta to breakfast to Mexican, Asian, Italian…

      I think this person is upset that other people are less lazy about cooking in general than he is

        Not really, he is just explaining that some veggies add a lot of taste for very little effort. People watch cooking programmes and think that you have to spend an hour cutting stuff up to make it worthwhile. Or that you have to spend a fortune on herbs to make it taste nice. When the reality is that just adding a single vegetable can do wonders for the taste. Onions are just the most versatile and one of the quickest to prep/cook.

          Almost everything sauteed or simmered starts out with at least onions, sure. I interpreted it, though, as “this person saying he takes no effort but they’re chopping vegetables and cooking something vs throwing some stuff in the microwave”. Hard to know with no context.
