Ingredients

WILD RICE:
2 cup water
1/2 cup wild rice (see Note), rinsed
1/8 teaspoon salt
FRITTATA:
5 large egg
2 large egg whites
2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped red onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried
1 pound mixed mushrooms (cremini, white button, shiitake), sliced
1/2 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
4 thin slices prosciutto (about 2 ounces), chopped

Steps:

To prepare wild rice: Combine water, rice and salt in a small heavy saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook until the rice is tender with a slight bite, 40 to 50 minutes. Drain; you'll have about 1 1/2 cups cooked rice.
To prepare frittata: About 30 minutes after you start cooking the rice, beat eggs and egg whites in a large bowl with parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and nutmeg.
Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
Heat oil in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium heat. Add onion and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in rosemary, then add mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until they release their liquid and the pan is dry, 6 to 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; stir in the rice.
Pour the reserved egg mixture evenly over the rice and vegetables. Partially cover and cook until set around the edges, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan and prosciutto. Place the pan under broiler and broil until the eggs are set and the top is nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
Ingredient note: Regular wild rice takes 40 to 50 minutes to cook. To save time, look for quick-cooking varieties, which can be on the table in less than 30 minutes, or instant wild rice, which is done in 10 minutes or less.
To Make Ahead: Prepare the rice (Step 1), cool and store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
