In Indian cooking there is a fritter that is
2 cups soaked and finely grounded rice (or use rice flour and water)
1 cup soaked and finely ground chick peas (or use besan flour and water)
a pinch of asefoetida
a little salt

It's about the consitency of pancake batter and gets drizzled into hot oil
like funnel cake.  Drain, cool, and break into sticks about cheese nib size.

There's also a similar flat round bread that looks like a tortilla, but is
crispier like a tortilla chip.  It has some spices in the batter like
freshly ground black pepper.
