PJH--thanks for responding. I cooked them for about 27 minutes before flipping them. Yes, the edges were getting pretty dark by then, but the centers were still quite pale. It might be a difference in size. The instructions say to make the patties 1/4-1/3 cup, and you made yours only 3 Tbsp. in size. That might be the reason why mine (1/4 cup or 4 Tbsp. size) didn't cook the same. I notice that the yield for the recipe is 18 latkes. Uh, mine only made 8 or 9. (I weighed the potatoes and everything. Left the skins on too.) I will try again and make them smaller. The flavor was so yummy that it's worth another shot!
