Time: Preparation 1 hours

Serving: 6 Servings

Ingredients

  • 2 c water
  • 0.5 c wild rice
  • 6 eggs
  • 0.5 t salt
  • 0.5 t black pepper
  • 0.25 t nutmeg
  • 2 t olive oil
  • 1 c red onion
  • 1 T rosemary
  • 1 lb mushrooms
  • 0.5 c parmesan
  • 2 oz prosciutto

Preparation

In a small, heavy saucepan, combine the water, wild rice, and a pinch of salt over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stir, reduce heat, and cover. Cook until rice is tender, about 40-50 minutes. Drain and set aside.

About 30 minutes after you’ve started cooking the rice, beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the parsley, 1/4 tsp of the salt, 1/4 tsp of the pepper, and nutmeg. 

Preheat broiler and place the rack in upper third of oven.

In a heavy, oven-proof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and remaining salt and pepper. Saute for 3-4 minutes, until onion has softened. Add the rosemary and mushrooms and cook, stirring well, until the mushrooms release their liquid and the pan is dry, 6-8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, and stir in the rice.

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and partially cover. Cook until the edges are set, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and prosciutto. Place the skillet under the broiler and broil until the top is nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.
