Other than butter beans, salt, pepper, garlic, cumin, and EVOO, I used completely different ingredients. I put in sweet peppers, spring onions, capers, lime, and cilantro. My olive oil also had red chili flavor. I think you can add whatever you want to the basic recipe and it would be delicious..within reason obviously. Boiled-then-cooled potatoes, for example, would be delicious with these beans and in this salad, particularly with capers. Bottom line is, this recipe is a solid party dish or simple side dish, very versatile/flexible, and delicious.

Dappy Charlie is right. Rachel added peeled, seeded cukes to this recipe when I watched it on TV. Haven't tried it yet, but will add the cukes to see what it tastes like.
