On Advay's friend demand - Pasta in Red Sauce

when it comes to cooking for kids i am a bit skeptical,as each of them are different .
So when one noon when Advay's friend had come for play date

 I asked Advay's friend what he would like to eat
he - aunty i will eat pasta
me -ok will prepare for you
he - aunty please prepare pasta in red sauce not in white sauce
me- uhh okay
Advay didnt had any clue what conversation we were having as he just asks me to prepare pasta :-)
Most of the time i prepare pasta with whatever vegetable i have but that day i just had onion and tomato ,
this is how i prepared the sauce

Recipe name pasta in red sauce 
ingredient 
boiled and drained pasta till al dente -150gm
ingredient for red sauce 
onion one chopped and ground to paste
tomato two chopped and ground to paste
garlic clove chopped finely one

mix everything together and add one cup of water
let it boil for 10 minutes and remove from flame .
