Sumptuously provided with food around the Orient (7)
I believe the answer is:
feasted
'sumptuously provided' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to consumption as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'with food around the orient' is the wordplay.
'with' is an insertion indicator.
'food' becomes 'mash' (mashed potato).
'around' means to look at the middle letters.
'the orient' becomes 'feted' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
The central letters of 'mash' are 'as'.
'as' placed within 'feted' is 'FEASTED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for feasted that I've seen before include "Ate lavishly" , "Banqueted" , "Had a lot to eat" , "Ate high off the hog" .)
