Use any finely diced vegetable. One of the first Indian recipes adopted by the colonists was a mixture of boiled beans and corn sweetened with the fat of the bear. The natives called it m'sick-quotash, but to the English it became simply succotash. If making rice for this recipe, plan on having some leftover for other uses. Ugly Pot is a plastic microwave vegetable and rice cooker, agreeably ugly but performs like a charm.
Every kitchen needs one.
