Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

2. Heat the oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions and chilies and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.

3. Reduce the heat to low and add the rice toast, stirring constantly for about 4 minutes.

4. Add the whole tomatoes, diced tomatoes, cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne and turmeric and cook for about 3 minutes.

5. Finally, add the broth, stir the mixture together and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the rice is not quite done (about 10 to 15 minutes left of cooking time).

6. Top with the cheese, and then bake with the lid off until the cheese is melted and the rice fully cooked, about 15 minutes.
