Preparation
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 12 minutes. Add cumin and coriander; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add roasted tomatoes, sugar, and the water; cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Working in batches, purƩe soup in a blender until smooth, being careful not to fill jar more than halfway each time. Strain through a fine sieve into pan (reheat over medium if necessary). Stir in butter and season with salt and pepper. Serve soup garnished with cilantro and red-pepper flakes.
