Begin by placing a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat and pouring in the water.
Add the salt to the water and bring it to a gentle boil.
Once the water reaches a boil, gradually sprinkle the semolina into the saucepan while constantly stirring with a whisk or wooden spoon to prevent lumps from forming.
Lower the heat to a simmer and continue to stir the semolina mixture for about 8-10 minutes until it thickens and the grains are tender. The consistency should be smooth and creamy.
As the semoule cooks, periodically scrape down the sides of the pan to incorporate any semolina that may stick.
Once the desired consistency is achieved, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Add the butter and olive oil, stirring until both are thoroughly melted and incorporated into the semoule.
Transfer the semoule cuite into a serving dish or individual bowls.
Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh flavor and presentation.
Serve immediately while warm, as a side dish, or enjoy it on its own!
