Directions
Fit a food processor with the steel blade attachment. With the motor running, drop garlic through the feed tube and process until minced. Add carrots and mushrooms; process until finely chopped. Turn the processor off; add onion and pulse until roughly chopped.

Cook beef and tomato paste in a large straight-sided skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the chopped vegetables, thyme, salt and pepper; cook, stirring often, until the vegetables start to soften and the mushrooms release their juices, 5 to 7 minutes.

Stir in 3½ cups broth, noodles and Worcestershire; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
Whisk flour with the remaining ¼ cup broth in a small bowl until smooth; stir into the hamburger mixture. Stir in sour cream. Simmer, stirring often, until the sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Serve sprinkled with parsley (or chives), if desired.

Recipe Updates
Added tomato paste (to boost flavor).
Replaced water with beef broth (to boost flavor).
Changed to full-fat sour cream (to help carry the flavor more).
