Richard Brunton 56 JULY 2011 HEALTHY FOR MEN 57 JULY 2011 HEALTHY FOR MEN There are all manner of steps the wise HFM reader can take to ensure he enjoys – and metes man or woman. But, first things first. The most ardent sexual superhero must start with good tools, and the basis of any intimate adventure must first and foremost be rude sexual health. Just follow these 10 steps. Alcohol is not your friend It’s well known that drinking increases a man’s desire and count and quality. It can also cause permanent impotence. It doesn’t do much for your breath either, or your chances of gum disease. You know. Just sayin’. More Zen, less stress Around third of impotence issues derive from psychological, rather than physiological, causes. Stress, fatigue and anxiety can assault testosterone levels and inhibit love making. If you feel under the cosh, or are fried by the demands of everyday life, consider yoga and meditation. Or look at the ancient technique of mindfulness big in Buddhist teaching and now available on the NHS. For more contemporary take on the art of mindfulness, try psychologist Dr Cecilia d’Felice’s excellent 21 Days To A New You (Orion, £7.99). Bag up! Even if your date is as pure as nun, wear condom. My Size condoms come in seven different sizes, so you’ll be sure to have the best fit (£7.99, www. britishcondoms.co.uk), leaving you with no possible excuses. Incidence of genital warts and

But did you realise that excessive drinking can, over time, shrink your genitals? Or lead to infertility? Sad but true. It’s best to stick to the guidelines of three units day, and don’t imagine you can save them up and use them all on Friday night either. In short, let the boozer beware. 2 Smoking ain’t either Lest you are tempted by the occasional cancer stick, remember that the majority of dysfunction are smokers, and cigarettes can reduce sperm chlamydia have doubled in the last 10 years, and you won’t always know if your partner has either of these sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Even your partner may not know… 5 Be watchful On that note, look out for penile discharge (bear with me). It means no sex, and go see doctor. Chlamydia in men may be almost symptom-free. Watch for mild inflammation in the head of your penis, which may cause the lips to be stuck together in the morning. 6 Oral objectivity Last note on STIs, I promise. Don’t forget that oral sex can be as easy a way to catch the nasties as anything else. Women are at greater risk from taking male ejaculate in their mouths than you are likely to be from cunnilingus, but you are exposing yourself to herpes and gonorrhea. Consider using latex barrier or dental dam (from £1, www. undercovercondoms.co.uk), or even plastic food wrap. 7 Eat nuts. And fish The foods that you eat can help to keep your sexual system in good working order: almonds and walnuts may help to improve blood flow; the omega-3 fatty acids in salmon will increase dopamine levels (which will guard against you being grouchy after sex). For a tasty supper, dot salmon fillet with a mixture of honey and mustard, coat in sesame seeds and bake in the oven. 8 Flex your pelvic floor Usually associated with women, pelvic floor exercises are every bit as important for men. The muscles that connect the base of the penis with the tailbone control the flow of fluids through the urethra; by strengthening them, you can delay ejaculation to heighten your orgasm. Find the muscles by stopping your flow of urine mid-flow; work on them by squeezing them for several seconds at the start and end of every day. 9 Give ginseng a go Ginseng, which can be taken either as supplement or in tea, contains compound called ginsenocide which helps to build blood and sperm. It is often associated with increased libido – as is the herb ginkgo biloba. Ginkgo biloba can also help promote your circulation as it’s 10 Stay hydrated Yes, water. Essential for life, love in fact, pretty much everything. If you are even dehydrated by one or two per cent of your body weight you can feel tired, dizzy and it will dent your libido. You’ll know that caffeine is a diuretic, so balance any tea or coffee with extra glasses of water. Complement your drinking with eating plenty of fruit such as melon, apples or any berries; these have the extra benefit of improving your complexion, so you’ll be better looking, as well as much more energised.

10 STEPS
Rigatoni alla giardiniera con polpettine di spinaci
Richard Brunton Richard Brunton Richard Brunton Richard Brunton Richard Brunton 120 121 healthyfood Peperoni arrosto Roasted peppers This is recipe created for Carluccio’s caffès. It is still on the menu, and every time someone orders it, some money goes to charity. It has proved so popular that Carluccio’s was able to collect £70,000 in just three months! SERVES 4 SPINACH BALLS (MAKES 24) 500g spinach, cleaned and tough stalks removed salt and pepper 2 eggs, beaten a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg 1 tsp very finely puréed garlic 100g fresh white breadcrumbs 50g Parmesan, freshly grated olive oil, for shallow-frying SAUCE 2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped 1 chilli, finely chopped 8 tbsp olive oil 2 courgettes, trimmed and finely grated 60g Parmesan, freshly grated 400g rigatoni salt and pepper SERVES 4 4 firm and fleshy yellow and red sweet peppers DRESSING 2 garlic cloves, peeled and coarsely chopped 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 1 tbsp coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley salt
Pasta with courgette sauce and spinach balls Prepare the spinach balls in advance and keep warm in very low oven. Wash the spinach, put in a pan of salted boiling water and blanch for minutes or so, then drain. Squeeze out as much water as you can, using your hands or pressing in sieve, then chop the leaves finely. Put the spinach in a medium bowl and stir in the beaten eggs, pinch of salt, some pepper, the nutmeg, garlic, breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Mix well until you achieve binding consistency. the mixture is too wet, add an extra tablespoon of breadcrumbs. Pour enough olive oil into a frying pan to cover the base generously, and heat gently. Roll the mixture into little balls the size of walnuts. Shallow-fry the spinach balls in the hot olive oil until golden, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on kitchen paper and serve either warm or cold. In saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. When ready, drain, reserving few tablespoons of the pasta cooking water. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Fry the garlic and chilli in the oil for about a minute don’t let the garlic brown –then add the courgettes, and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the courgettes have started to soften. Add the Parmesan to the sauce, season to taste and mix well, then toss thoroughly with the drained pasta and reserved cooking water. Serve hot with the warmed spinach balls on top. 1 Roast the peppers on barbecue, turning them over frequently with tongs, blistered. Depending on the flame, this can take quite a while. Don’t be afraid of allowing them to become black; they’re better overcooked than too raw but you don’t want them turned to ash! Alternatively, roast the peppers in preheated oven at 200ºC/Gas 6 for about 30-45 minutes. However, while this method is little less labour-intensive, the flavour is not quite so good. When the peppers are ready, put them in dish to cool little. don’t think they need to be put in a plastic bag or covered, despite the advice of many other chefs. When cool enough to handle, rub the skins off with your hands and discard, then slice the peppers in half and remove the stalks, membranes and seeds. Cut the pepper flesh lengthways into narrow strips and place in a dish. Add the dressing ingredients and mix, seasoning with salt to taste. You can eat the dish straightaway, or leave it to become cold but is at its best the next day, when the flavours have had time to mingle. Roasted peppers, skinned and eaten as a salad, is one of my favourite pepper dishes. They are most delicious when can also be cooked in the oven. You will find a recipe like this in trattorias from the middle of Italy right down to Sicily; it peppers are great as an antipasto, but can also be served with roast meats, and l All recipes taken from Antonio Carluccio’s Simple Cooking (Quadrille). Readers of Healthy can purchase the book at the special rate of £15 (usually £20) with free p&p. To order please call 01256 302699, quoting ref 3SW. 122 123 healthyfood SERVES 4-6 350g pappardelle salt and pepper freshly grated Parmesan (optional) SAUCE small artichokes 300g asparagus 300g white young onions, peeled and finely sliced 300g podded tender broad beans 200g podded tender garden peas tbsp olive oil 100ml water tbsp coarsely chopped parsley 1 To make the sauce, first prepare the artichokes by removing the tough outer leaves and trim the base of the stems. With sharp knife, trim the tips of the leaves, leaving only the tender parts. Cut into quarters and remove any choke. 2 Put all the vegetables in a large saucepan with the oil and water. Cook gently for 20 minutes then, when you are sure everything is cooked, add some salt and pepper and the parsley. Mix well. 3 In saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain and mix with the sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve. Pappardelle con frittedda Wide pasta ribbons with springtime sauce Caponata Siciliana Sicilian vegetable stew Frittedda, in the Sicilian dialect, means a stew of asparagus, young onions, small broad beans, peas and artichokes, all of which are in season between March and April. It makes an excellent sauce for the largest size of pasta ribbon, pappardelle. SERVES 4-6 800g aubergine 1 large onion, peeled and chopped 2 tbsp olive oil 3 ripe tomatoes, cut into chunky cubes 1 tbsp tomato purée, diluted with a little water 1 tbsp caster sugar 1 tbsp salted capers, soaked in cold water 20 green pitted olives 1 tbsp white wine vinegar chopped leaves and stalks of 1 head celery 1 tbsp raisins salt and pepper 1 tbsp pine kernels (optional) Cut the aubergines into 3cm chunks, soak in cold water for minutes, then drain. This will stop the aubergine from absorbing too much oil. 2 Fry the onion in the olive oil in large pan for a few minutes to soften. Put the aubergine chunks into the pan and fry Add the tomatoes, diluted tomato purée, sugar, capers, olives, vinegar, celery leaves and stalks, raisins and some salt and pepper and stew slowly until everything is melted together, about 3 Stir in the pine kernels, desired, and serve either cold or warm as a side dish, or by itself with bread. Versatile, delicious and easy to make, caponata is probably Sicily’s best-known dish. Throughout the centuries Sicily has been invaded and colonised by many other nations, and many Sicilian recipes show influences from other cuisines. Here you will see that there are some hints of the French ratatouille, while the inclusion of raisins and pine kernels suggests some Arabic influences too. 39
