Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in an ovenproof casserole dish, add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softened. Add the rice and cook for 1 min more, stirring to coat in the oil. Tip in the soup and stock, season and stir well to combine, then bring to the boil. Cover and place in the oven.

  • step 2

    Bake for 15 mins, then remove the dish from the oven, give the rice a good mix, stirring in the parsley. Place the asparagus and tomatoes on top of the rice. Return to the oven, uncovered, for a further 15 mins. Scatter with the cheese to serve.

Very easy. Decided to roast the asparagus at the same time as cooking the rice for the first 15 minutes and jazzed up with balsamic glaze before serving.

Great recipe! Very easy and just right! Instead of the asparagus soup - I don't like instant food - I used some half fat thick cream. I guessed from the recipe that the asparagus would risk being undercooked so I made sure they were well covered with the liquid of the rice. I also put slightly more…
