Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium-high (water should continue to boil). Allow the beets to cook for approximately 50-60 minutes (or 30 minutes in a pressure cooker). The beets are ready when the skin easily comes off and you can pierce the flesh with a knife or fork with no resistance. Drain the beets. Fill the sink or a large bowl with water and lots of ice; soak the beets for 30 minutes. While the beets are cooling down, heat a small frying\/saut\u00c3\u00a9 pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds to the pan and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153roast\u00e2\u20ac\u009d them for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Grind the roasted cumin seeds in an electric coffee\/spice mill or by hand using a mortar and pestle. In a small bowl, combine the red onion, parsley, cilantro, roasted ground cumin, salt, pepper, olive oil and fresh lemon juice; mix well and set aside. When the beets have cooled down, remove the skins (should slide right off), trim the tops\/ends and cut into 1\/2 inch (bite-sized) cubes. Combine the beets and the onion\/herb mixture in a large bowl and gently stir until the beets are evenly coated. Refrigerate until ready to serve (will hold in the refrigerator for a few days).
