Reportedly collected condiment (7)
I believe the answer is:
mustard
'condiment' is the definition.
(mustard is a kind of condiment)
'reportedly collected' is the wordplay.
'reportedly' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'collected' becomes 'mustered' (mustering is a kind of collecting).
'mustered' sounds like 'MUSTARD'.
(Other definitions for mustard that I've seen before include "Hot-tasting seed" , "The keen stuff ?" , "Dark yellow" , "leading performer in wet conditions" , "Pungent condiment" .)
