  1. Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the crushed garlic and cook for an additional minute. Remove half of the onion and garlic mixture and set aside.
  2. Add the beef mince and diced carrots to the saucepan. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the mince is browned. Pour in half of the beef stock and the Worcestershire sauce, then let it simmer for 15 minutes, adding more stock if needed.
  3. In another small saucepan, combine the reserved onion and garlic with the drained chickpeas and the remaining beef stock. Simmer for 5 minutes until the chickpeas are soft. Mash the chickpeas with a fork or potato masher and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Spoon the beef mixture into a small dish and top with the chickpea mash. Serve warm.
