The pork is commonly omitted for a vegetarian side-dish.
In some recipes, a red bell pepper (chopped) is added.
One variation which is similar to glottucks is to add 1/2 cup dried sea kelp, chopped. In the vegetarian variation, the kelp is sauted in butter first, and then the remaining ingredients are added.
