Some Tips/ Suggestions:

If you are serving immediately, fry poori on medium-low heat to make them crisp. But if you are planning to serve later, please fry the pooris on medium-high heat to make them soft.

Poori with aloo (dry potato vegetable) is a perfect combo for travel. The following picture has poori, aloo and khatta meetha karela. This karela sabji is also a good option for travel.
