    I cook pongal, vegetable pulov, in it.

    dry roast moong dal on a pan, give tadka with ginger etc, add enough water to the vessel and cook,
    pulov also same in a pan fry all masalas and vegetables add it to the rice and switch on the cooker

    For vegetable saute, the recipe book you got along with the rice cooker might have some recipes in it.

    I used to make Rajma and chole in it.
    Make the normal onion tomato ginger garlic type masala.Add soaked rajma ,chola and let it simmer for a long time.
    One thing I realized is that the liquid does not reduce ...so the water has to be less . You can always add more water later on if it is too thick.
