Serves 10 (makes 30 demitasse servings)
2 Tbs. unsalted butter
2 large onions, chopped (about 3 cups)
2 large red bell peppers, diced (about 3 cups)
8 cloves garlic, minced (2 1/2 Tbs.)

2 1/2 tsp. harissa
2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves, plus more for garnish
Crème fraîche, for garnish
Directions
1. Melt butter in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onions, peppers and garlic, and sauté 3 to 5 minutes, or until soft, stirring often.
2. Add carrots and potato and cook 4 to 5 minutes more, or until potatoes begin to brown.
