Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F. / 204 degrees C. Remove the tough part of the asparagus, place it on a baking tray, add half of the olive oil, save the rest for cooking. Bake for 15 minutes.
While the asparagus cook, make the rice. Add the water and rice to a pot, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook at low heat for 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork when done.
