Peel the potatoes and cut them into even pieces. Place them in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and let them steam-dry for a few minutes, then pass them through a potato ricer or mash them until smooth.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, all-purpose flour, semolina flour, egg, nutmeg, and black pepper. Mix until the dough comes together. It should be slightly sticky but manageable; add a bit more flour if necessary.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Divide it into four equal parts. Roll each part into a long rope about 1/2-inch thick.
Cut the ropes into 1-inch pieces. Using your hands, roll each piece into an oval shape at the ends, giving it the characteristic Schupfnudel look.
Boil a large pot of water. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook the schupfnudeln in batches until they float to the surface, about 1-2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and let them drain on a paper towel.
In a large pan, heat the unsalted butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the schupfnudeln in batches and cook until they are golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the cooked schupfnudeln with fresh parsley before serving.
