Cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is tender and all water is absorbed. In smaller saucepan, combine broth, soynut butter and cilantro. Stir constantly over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the soynut butter is smooth. Set aside. When rice is done, stir in the soynut butter mixture. Serve immediately.
