These are a delicious alternative to potato crisps. Root vegetables have a natural sweetness and adults and children love them. The dip is a tasty accompaniment but they are just as good on their own. Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit. If you cannot find it use a mixture of lemon and lime juice. Crème fraiche can be replaced with sour cream or Greek yogurt.
