Reduce heat, place cover on the pot, and cook until rice is just cooked through, about 14 to 16 minutes.
• While the rice is cooking, place cilantro, garlic and pine nuts in a food processor and process until coarsely chopped. With the motor running, add the oil and process until smooth. Add the cheese and process until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
