Did you ever try to cook something with perfection but it got spoiled instead?

Today, I cooked butter chicken. I think, by mistake I added salt twice and the dish became too salty.. 
I love butter chicken and was so sad when I checked the salt.
I think, I had already added salt when my mom came to the kitchen to know something and I forgot after she left. I added salt again (I think) after adding yogurt and tasted it.. It was too salty.
I was upset but my mom said.. it's ok.. Sometimes it happens..

That has happened to me, too. If you put in raw sliced potatoes, it will help absorb some of the extra salt. Once I made a pear and pistachio tart, which took me hours, and when I took it out of the oven, it slide off my pan and onto the floor. 
. Good thing I made two.

I did it once but save it to even better tasting dish. It was also chicken and the same with your case. It was a one huge pan of chicken cuts. I can't estimate how much salt should I put to that cooking so I just added more salt in it. And it really taste very salty. I don't want to throw the whole thing and gone to waste so I added sugar in it.

@Sheali I've made a few mistakes here and there I'm sure but nothing comes to mind right now. I'm sorry you accidentally added too much salt but as your mum said, it sometimes happens.
