Method
In saucepan of boiling salted water, cover and cook beets until tender and skins slip off easily, about 25 minutes.
Drain and let cool; slip off skins and cut into 1/4-inch (5 mm) dice. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. (Beets can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.)
In large bowl, whisk together buttermilk, 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the onions, sour cream, dill, sugar, vinegar and salt. Cover and refrigerate until chilled or for up to 6 hours. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Ladle buttermilk mixture into serving bowls. Swirl in beets and cucumber. Garnish with remaining green onions and dill or coriander sprigs.
