Cook the rice according to the instructions, about 1/3 – 1/2 cup per person. Cut the asparagus into pieces. Halve the mushrooms depending on their size. Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour to the melted butter and make a roux. Add the vegetable stock and whisk, adding a little water if needed. Add the asparagus and mushrooms and heat for about 10 minutes. Stir frequently, as the roux will settle and burn. Add lemon juice and white wine to taste.
