The Nagpur-based chef is all set to prepare a huge quantity of Suji ka Halwa for the consecration ceremony. He will cook 7,000 kg of Ram Halwa at the Ram Mandir on January 22. To make the suji halwa, he will use 900 kg of rava, 300 kg of dry fruits, 40 kg of cardamom and nutmeg powder, 1 ton of sugar, about 1500 litres of milk, 1 ton of ghee, and 2,500 litres of water.

The chef has made a huge 10-foot kadhai to make halwa. It will be able to hold a capacity of 12,000 litres. And the spatula to mix and cook all the ingredients is about 10-12 feet long. There will be some cooks to assist Chef Vishnu Manohar in cooking halwa. Ram Halwa will be offered to the deity as prasad. After, it will be distributed among all the devotees.
