Gradually add the vegetable broth to the saucepan, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more.

When the rice is almost tender, stir in the asparagus and peas. Continue cooking until the vegetables are heated through and the rice is cooked to your desired consistency.
