"If you really want to make a friend, go to someone's house and eat with him...the people who give you their food give you their heart." - Cesar Chavez

โžก๏ธ I recently had friends stay with us for a few days and we had the most fantastic time!

But on the last night I realised I hadnโ€™t Cooked for them once and I felt sad. I guess because cooking for Others really does bring me joy. ๐Ÿฅฐ

So a few Indian Curries later the laughter and sharing began.

Not surprisingly after hosting for 4 days I suddenly felt like I had done a great job. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ’›

โ€œLife expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon.โ€ - Doug Larson ๐Ÿฅ“๐Ÿฅฆ ๐Ÿค” Hows your life with vegetables going? Some people are just born into a vegetable loving lifestyle and others, like me, have to work hard at it! Im always searching for the most exotic and delicious ways of using all manner of plants in my cooking as often as I can. While it certainly makes for an interesting menu every week it definitely makes a difference in developing a greater love for all things plant based. ๐Ÿคฉ Iโ€™m always astounded by the beauty of fresh produce and one day I hope to carry that message to my taste buds. Most importantly I will never stop trying! I wish all those who are vegetable averse the same hope for that delicious vegetable moment! ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ โœ… FOLLOW ME for more food adventures!! ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ @theaquariancook ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿ…๐ŸŒฎ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฃ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿฅฎ๐Ÿง€๐Ÿฅช๐Ÿฅฆ๐Ÿ’ #gastronome #FoodQuote #foodforthought #quoteoftheday #foodthoughts #vegetables #bacon #warofthefoods #Food #KitchenIsMyPlayground #foodietip #TheAquarianCook #thehappyfoodie #GoldCoastFoodie #eatforpleasure #gayfoodie #gaycook #aussiefoodie #OnMyTableToday #EatWhatMakesYouHappy #HowToCook #FoodiesOfInstagram #AustralianFood #homecookedfood #FoodBlogIeats #FoodHeaven #FoodPhotography #FeedFeed #FoodAdventures #Yummy

โ€œThe chief pleasure in eating does not consist in costly seasoning, or exquisite flavor, but in yourself.โ€ - Horace ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น Born in 65BC Italy, this great man brought an epic standard to the Literature of the ancient world and still food was a favourite topic. ๐Ÿค” Can a plain boiled chicken wing bring you the same pleasure as one covered in all the spices and sauces of the greatest cuisines on the planet?

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช โ€œLaughter is brightest in the place where the food is.โ€ โ€“ Irish Proverb ๐Ÿค” Why is it that food is always at the centre of the best moments in our lives? Is it because eating is such a personal experience that sharing becomes an intimate act? ๐Ÿ•Š Are friendships and relationships built on sharing a table if not sharing a plate of food? ๐Ÿฝโ€จ What I know to be true is that the deeper the level of sharing at the table, the closer you are to those around you, and the more positive the experiences are. ๐Ÿ’› Next time you share a meal or a snack or a dessert with anyone at all, take note of the level of sharing, and weigh it against your feelings for them in that moment. โ™ฅ๏ธ LIKE and SHARE this post with someone you love to share food with! ๐Ÿ˜ FOLLOW ME for more food adventures!! ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ @theaquariancook ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ #sharingfoodislove #EatWell #InstaFood #FoodieGram #FoodBlogger #FoodBlog #gastrophilosopher #FoodQuote #FoodQuotes #mindfullness #quoteoftheday #gaycook #gayfood #theaquariancook #foodphilosophy #israel #Queenslandfoodie #aussiefoodie #australianfoodblogger #FoodBlogFeed #eatrealfood #feedfeed #cookforlife #forkyeah #foodnerd #foodgasm #instafood #kitchen #Irishproverb @foodyeating @thefeedfeed @food52

๐Ÿฅš โ€œProbably one of the most private things in the world is an egg before it is broken.โ€ - M.F.K. Fisher ๐Ÿ‘ฑ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธMary Fisher was an incredible woman who spent her life travelling and experiencing food from every imaginable perspective.

Leek and Ham Quiches
๐Ÿฅง Ham & Leek Quiches. Whoever invented a pastry cup was genius! What I love about a quiche is you can put virtually anything inside them! โœ… Perfect for using up leftovers, you can make your own custom flavours like I did. The leeks were sautรฉed with thyme until they were soft and buttery and the ham was triple smoked. ๐Ÿ˜‹ It couldnโ€™t be any better after a good sprinkle of Red Leicester cheese and a blast in a hot oven.

๐ŸŒถ Who DOUBLES the SPICES in every recipe?? I do I do!! ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ ๐Ÿ› I love to sit down to a gorgeous CURRY or spiced dish as much as I LOVE to make them! Have you been in Cook mode and smelled every spice as you mix it in? ๐Ÿ‘ƒ๐Ÿป Have you added more flavours just because more means more?? ๐Ÿ‘… ๐ŸŒถ I know alot of people assume more spices means hotter ๐Ÿ”ฅ food, but it can have no chilli but still pack an incredible flavour punch. ๐ŸฅŠ My secret ingredient I use as often as possible: fenugreek. Ground seeds, fresh leaves ๐Ÿƒ ๐Ÿคค or even dried will lift every aspect of your spiced dishes profile! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Please LIKE, SAVE or COMMENT! โœ… FOLLOW ME for more food adventures!! ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ @theaquariancook ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿฅฌ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‡๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฅฉ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿง€๐Ÿซ‘๐Ÿญ #foodmeme #foodjokes #curry #letstalkfood #Spices #ILoveIndia #HotAndSpicy #SpiceUpYourLife #indianfood #india #gaycook #gayfood #gaypride #lgbtq #instagay #theaquariancook #foodphilosophy #goldcoastfood #Queenslandfoodie #aussiefoodie #australianfoodblogger #eatathome #eatrealfood #feedfeed #canvalove #forkyeah #foodnerd #foodgasm #instafood #kitchen @foodyeating @thefeedfeed @food52
