   Heat butter in saucepan. Add onion and saute over medium heat 5
   minutes. Add chiles to taste. Saute 3 minutes. Add bulgur. Saute 4-5
   minutes, stirring frequently. Add tomato. Cook 4-5 minutes.
   
   Season to taste with salt. Add boiling stock and cover pan. Cook 3
   minutes on medium heat, then reduce heat to low and cook until bulgur
   absorbs liquid and holes appear on surface, 10-15 minutes.
   
   Reduce heat to very low. Place dish towel over mouth of saucepan and
   place lid over towel. Let steam 20 minutes. Remove lid and towel,
   stir with slotted spoon, lifting gently from bottom of pan. Recover
