Human: What is the best way to prepare steel-cut oats? Assistant: 
The best way to prepare steel-cut oats is to combine two parts of water or milk with one part of oats in a pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and allow the oats to simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once the oats have finished cooking, remove from heat and season with desired toppings and flavors. Enjoy!
