Raw Potato: Add some slices of raw potato to your dish. The sliced potatoes will help in absorbing the excess salt in the food. Remember to wash and peel the skin of the potatoes before adding them, and leave the potatoes in the dish for at least 20 minutes.

Flour dough: Depending on the quantity of the dish, you can make a few balls of flour dough and add them to your dish. All the extra salt will be soaked up in the dough. Remove the dough balls before serving the dish.
