Ginger, peanuts and green onions are the most common ingredients in China, and they are not expensive at all. Everyone can afford them. Green onions and ginger are condiments, not staple food. We all use them when we stir fry, and without them, dishes will be tasteless. Peanuts are a very good food. They can be cooked and fried. The most common way to eat it is to put some of it in when you make porridge and the porridge will be particularly fragrant. There are also fried five-spice peanuts. You can see it in any supermarket. It's very popular. But peanuts have a high oil content, and you will feel very greasy if you eat too much.

I agree with the other correction, condiments in my sense are usually placed after the food is cooked but I could be wrong, Perhaps spices and herbs is a better way of saying it.

I feel like "condiments" is likely to mean something you put on food *after* it's cooked. You're at the table, the food is served, and then you apply the condiments you want - salt, pepper, soy sauce, tomato sauce, mustard, that sort of thing. But I'm not sure how I would describe the idea you're expressing. I might say "They are flavour ingredients".

Anyway, not really wrong, just strikes me as quite unusual.

Plural, unless you're eating a single peanut :)

"fragrant" also strikes me as unusual. I think of fragrant things as being like flowers or women's perfumes. They smell nice, but sometimes not like you would want to eat them. Some foods can be fragrant, a curry or a stir fry for sure, but maybe not porridge. But I have no alternative suggestion!

I love peanuts, but I've never considered putting them in porridge. Maybe I'll try it some time!

I wanted to say “调味品” and I think “flavour condiments” make sense.

In Chinese, I often say that the meal is very 香. I translated 香 in English and it refers to fragrant.

Next time when you make porridge you can put some peanuts in it, and the flavor is very good. Thank you correcting my journal.

In Chinese, we call ginger and green onions 调味品,I checked it on google and it turned out that it means Condiments.
