Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Roll out the dough and cut it into thin noodles.

After boiling the chicken for about 40 minutes, add a whole onion to the pot.

Add all the chopped vegetables including carrots and red bell pepper to the broth and simmer.

Add salt and sour borscht to taste, allowing it to simmer for an additional five minutes.

Finally, add the homemade noodles and ground thyme.
