I believe the answer is:

taped

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'as recorded' is the definition.
'taped' can be an answer for 'recorded' (similar in meaning). I'm unsure of the 'as' bit.

'ted's out to get pa upset' is the wordplay.
'out' means to remove the last letter.
'to get' is an insertion indicator.
'upset' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'pa' reversed gives 'ap'.
'teds' with its last letter removed is 'ted'.
'ted' enclosing 'ap' is 'TAPED'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for taped that I've seen before include "recorded" , "put on record" , "Bound" , "On record; tied up" .)
