Stainless steel cookware. Spend the extra money to avoid shitty non-stick and aluminum. Steel heats evenly and maintains temperature. My food has improved a lot just with this change
Related: a good knife. Get a good santoku and you'll be prepared for the vast majority of kitchen tasks.
Good stainless cookware can be stupid cheap, too. If you don't care about fancy tri-ply, you can get a perfectly usable pan from a restaurant supply store for $20.
