I'd simply reduce the level, maybe EQ it a bit to it sounds like it's being picked up by a production mic on location, and maybe add a slight amount of reverb that could realistically be similar to the environment in question.
Diegetic is a big word for "source" music or sound.
If you're also mixing sound for the picture, great. If someone else is mixing and/or designing sound, it's essentially their problem, in which case I'd deliver the highest quality recording possible.
Thanks, MIDI Life Crisis! Yes, I am doing all the post audio. I also recorded the location sound (not audiable in the clip though). It's a small production. I was at first also thinking that I probably could fake the kitchen sound with an EQ and proverb. But then comes the cut to the hallway and the viewer is suddenly outside the kitchen and the kitchen door opens. It gets a bit trickier here I think
I've been looking at audio ease's indoor convolution reverb. That would do the job in a minute. But it's 700€. It would be nice to find a site where you could buy singular IRs, just to have somewhere to start.
