Graphite nuts.

I tend to use CA, but just a dot. All you should need to do is hold it in place (glueing is not a solution for a poorly fitting nut). CA has a very low shear strength so the nut should pop out if needed in the future with a smart tap from one side, and its really quick.... :) PVA works too because it doesn't bond to the nut well, but it can leave the nut slot a bit gummy and in need of a clean when it comes to replacing it IME.

Similarly to Pete just above me, I think not much glue at all. The strings do hold the nut pretty much in place in general as Pete says, so don't think you have to get glue happy. I actually use a small amount of clear nail varnish for this job sometimes, due again to it being easy to sheer off later. Just a small amount.
