What was the procedure after Sai Baba finished cooking in the Handi? Who received the food first?

According to Chapter 38, after the food in the Handi was fully cooked, Baba would bring it into the Masjid. The first step was a formal consecration prayer, the "Fatya," which was offered by a Maulvi. Immediately following this blessing, the very first portions of the Prasad, or blessed food, were sent specifically to Mhalasapati and Tatya. After they had been served, Baba would then personally distribute all the remaining food with his own hands to the poor, weak, and hungry, finding great joy and contentment in satisfying them.
