The trick is to keep the heat very low and stir once it starts to almost stick this will give you a really soft and creamy consistency. You can use butter instead of olive oil and broth instead of water if you wanna get wild. This is a great dinner, side dish, or even reheated lunch that comes together in under 30 minutes with good flavor that costs very little to make.
