My MIL really loved this but I thought it lacked flavor. Some sort of additional seasoning is really needed.

Very tasty. 2 1/4 cups of broth was not enough for me, I had to use 4 cups of broth. I put the asparagus in the rice cooking pot in the last five minutes of cooking.

4.5 stars. This is a solid recipe. I've made it several times; tried it with brocolli and also just the rice (minus the asparagus). It's best with asparagus. The dish tastes great and tastes no time to prepare. The only reason it's not a 5 star recipe is because I can get same results (minus the chopping) from Rice-A-Roni... (but I won't... I like to chop :o))

I made the recipe as instructed, but I did need extra vegetable broth during cooking like (as did another reviewer) and halved the butter as many reviews recommended. The butter really is too much as written, and 2 tablespoons seems to be a good amount. Next time I will take others' suggestions and broil the asparagus and cashews, and I'm sure it will be even better. It was good; I'll make it again!

I did make a few changes but I think the essence of the dish remained the same. It's really the asparagus/cashew combo that make this so good. I subbed a mix of brown and wild rice for the jasmine rice, used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth and cut the butter in half. Because I used brown rice it took longer and needed more broth. It was excellent and such an interesting combo!

Great and easy! To save time, I cooked the asparagus first, then set it aside and used the same pot for the rice. Also used pasta nests instead of spaghetti (b/c that's all I had). Turned out DE-LISH.

Really good and quick to make. You should bypass all those boxed rice dishes and this one yourself.

Very tasty. But it was kind of dry. I followed the recipe exactly. Hmmmmmm- Dryer water here in Germany?

Fabulous, delicious recipe! It even tasted better than I expected. I reduced the butter used and used whole wheat spaghetti. I tried to use less pans and put the asparagus in with the rice while it cooked but it did end up getting too cooked this way. Next time I'll use the extra pan and follow the recipe!

Loved this recipe and I'll make it again. I did roast the asparagus and because I was making it for a large amount of people I used some mushrooms too. If you top it with some Parmesan or some sharp cheddar it will taste even better. Thank you for the recipe.

This recipe was enjoyable. I thought it was very easy to make. I broiled the asparagus and the cashews. To cook the rice, I used 1 cup of veg. broth and 1 cup water. I also used half the amount of butter called for and it came out perfect. I will definitely make this again!

I registered with allrecipes today just so that I could write a review for this recipe. I use this site often but this recipe inspired me to write. This was so good. I used almost a cup of diced onions and chicken broth instead of vegetable broth. Also, I used almonds instead of cashews. My boyfriend and I each had this twice today already...all of it is gone! Delicious! It isn't particularly gourmet, but it is easy and a wonderful side dish. We had ours with roasted salmon with mango salsa. YUM!

I was looking for something to do with rice and broccoli to go with my ginger sesame salmon. Someone on the Recipe Exchange suggested this one, subbing my broccoli for the asparagus. It was perfect! Even my 12-year-old daughter who "hates" rice gobbled it up.

Yummy!! Super pretty with it's presentation too! I would maybe add more asparagus next time just because I love it so much and also, golden raisens could be a great addition.

Wonderful. The only thing I fould was that both times I made it I felt I needed to keep adding a little water because mixture was appearing too dry and I was afraid it would burn to the bottom of the pan before all ingredients were cooked through and ready to serve. Yum.

This recipe is awesome and easy! Because my husband is a meat eater I added pre-cooked grilled chicken, tasty and easy. I use chicken broth when making the pilaf and used olive oil instead of butter. With the asparagus mixture I added chicken, seseame oil, garlic, soy sauce, and chicken broth. Satued all together and pour over the pilaf mixture it's Delicious!!!
