Chef's Notes
Treat your dough like a delicate secret; keep it stiff and well-rested, or your pooris will stubbornly refuse to balloon up into glorious golden spheres of joy.
Pro Tip
Always ensure your frying oil is smoking hot before dropping the dough disc in, otherwise your poori will just sit at the bottom of the pan like a soggy sad pancake.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you roll your pooris too thin or use too little water in the dough, they will turn out completely flat and rock-hard, making them useful only as emergency roofing shingles for a dollhouse.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
My scale weeps every time I roll out a batch of pooris, but my soul rejoices in glorious golden bubbles.
The Culinary Science
When the moisture inside the rolled dough instantly vaporizes in the scorching oil, it creates steam pressure that forces the top and bottom layers apart, causing the poori to magically puff up.

Starch Retrogradation Reversal
Storage Science
Store at room temperature in a breathable bread bag or paper wrapper for up to 2 days. DO NOT refrigerate, as the cold accelerates starch retrogradation (staling). For long-term storage, freeze tightly wrapped.
Reheating Science
To reverse staling, flick a few drops of water onto the crust and reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-8 minutes. The steam will re-gelatinize the starches, making the crumb soft and the crust crisp.
