BL's Note's: This is actually the recipe I use for matzoh at passover, although not quite orthodox. The traditional recipe uses wheat flour, but this comes out very much like a traditional store bought rice cracker. Be careful though because it uses it oil it goes from not quite done to burnt VERY quickly. I generally omit the coriander, but you can add any flavouring you like if you are using it for just crackers.
