How do you fix chutney that is too salty?

- Add a sweetener: Adding a sweetener like sugar, honey, or jaggery can help counteract the saltiness.

- Dilute with water: Adding a small amount of water can help dilute the saltiness. Make sure to adjust the other ingredients to maintain the desired consistency and flavor.

- Add vegetables or fruits: Adding more vegetables or fruits to the chutney can help balance the saltiness. Choose vegetables or fruits with a naturally sweet or tangy flavor.

- Use starchy ingredients: Starchy ingredients like potatoes or rice can absorb excess salt. You can add boiled or mashed potatoes, or a paste made from rice flour.

- Add sour ingredients: Sour ingredients like lemon juice, tamarind, or amchur powder can help balance the saltiness and add complexity to the flavor.

- Add roasted ingredients: Roasted nuts or seeds can help balance the saltiness and add texture.

- Add dairy products: Dairy products like yogurt or cream can help reduce the saltiness and add creaminess to the chutney.

- Combine with other dishes: If you've made a small amount of chutney that's too salty, you can mix it with other dishes that are bland or less salty. This way, the saltiness will be distributed more evenly.

- Freeze and dilute: If all else fails, you can freeze the salty chutney in small portions. When you're ready to use it, thaw a portion and dilute it with water or other ingredients as desired.
