Made famous by Antoine’s in New Orleans. Fried puffed potatoes. There is an interesting legend on how they came to be about.

“The most famous of all our vegetable dishes is Pommes de Terres Soufflées, or Puffed Potatoes. The story of their creation and the secret of their preparation
was given to Antoine by the great chef Collinet, during Antoine’s apprenticeship
at the Hotel de Noailles in Marseilles.
The story goes that the occasion was the first run of the railroad from Paris to
St. Germain-en-Laye. Louis Philippe, then king of France, was going to ride the train on its inaugural run to St. Germain-en-Laye, where there would be a great celebration and feast.
Chef Collinet, who was preparing the feast, had a messenger waiting for the
train’s arrival. As soon as the messenger could see the train approaching, he
rushed to Collinet to inform him. The great chef threw his potatoes, which he
had cut for frying, into the oil to cook. Louis Philippe had a penchant for fried
potatoes and insisted on having them at every meal.
Unfortunately for Collinet, the king was not on the train. The king’s advisors had
at the last minute forced him to ride in a carriage alongside of the train as they
feared for his life on this unproven track.
When Collinet realized that the king was not on the train, he removed the potatoes from the oil and set them aside. What a dilemma! There were no more potatoes to cook and the king would be furious!
So, Collinet waited, and some time later Louis Philippe finally arrived, and the banquet began. Collinet’s only chance was to reheat the cooked potatoes. Back
into the grease, which had become extremely hot from sitting on the fire, they went, and to the amazement of everyone, they puffed up into small balloon shapes. The king was both thrilled and amazed and showered Collinet with compliments.
Antoine brought the recipe with him to New Orleans and Pommes de Terres Soufflées have been served here ever since.”

Found the old potato post in the Kinja Food file. Grocery run this morning and I had bacon in the freezer I needed to use and the green onions outside were getting overgrown. Devoured it skin and all.
