Steps:
- Cook the rice in the hot water, simmering over a low heat in a covered pan for around 20 minutes, until all the water has been absorbed.
- When the rice is fully cooked, remove from the heat.
- Add the pesto sauce, pine nuts and parmesan cheese. Stir to mix well.
- If the rice has had a chance to cool at all, you may wish to reheat it at this point- the rice should be hot enough for the mozzarella to melt slightly.
- Serve onto plates and top with the grated mozzarella if desired.
- Enjoy!
