Rinse the green peppercorns in a sieve. Blanch the celery briefly in salted water, drain well, and let it dry. Combine the crème fraîche and egg well, add the whole peppercorns and parsley, and season with a little nutmeg. Place the celery in a well-buttered casserole dish. Sprinkle the bacon bits, garlic, and walnuts over the casserole, and pour the topping evenly over the casserole. Grate the Parmesan cheese directly onto the casserole. Bake in an oven preheated to 200°C (top/bottom heat) for about 20 minutes.
