In a pot, bring water to boil. Add wild rice and salt, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 45 minutes until rice is tender and some grains have burst open. Most of the liquid should be absorbed. Drain rice in mesh strainer to remove excess liquid and return to pot.
Melt butter/oil in a large non-stick skillet on medium, and fry the onions and carrots for about 4-5 minutes until soft.
Add cooked rice, cranberries, pecans and parsley, sprinkle on oregano, and gently fold.
Serve hot, warm or cold.
