In medium saucepan, combine potatoes and cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool. Cut potatoes into quarters.

Stir in parsley, lemon juice if desired, tarragon, salt and pepper. Remove from heat and let stand for several minutes. Serve warm.
