Chris, they are very similar. We did a post on Fried Panelle too.

These look great. The consistency of the “chickpea block” and the overall process reminds me of fried polenta slices.

Mcchan, hmmm, I’m really not sure. It might not crisp up enough, but let me know if you try it.

Sophia and EMC, I’m blushing! Thank you!

Kalyan and Manasi, I’m expecting some Indian uses for the chickpea flour pronto!

This looks perfect for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. Having never used chickpea flour, this is totally intriguing for us.

awesome. i’ve seen chickpea flour used more in the last month than in my entire life, and these fries have finally convinced me that i need to try some for myself.

Chickpea flour is used often in Indian cooking. You’ll find it in most Indian stores, like Kalyan mentioned, it’s called Besan.

I’m in agreement with Sophia! Luckily, I have organic chickpea flour on hand. Kind of an odd thing to have hidden in your cupboard, but I used to use it in muffins. I’m so glad (and kudos to Sara!) to have something different to use it in.
