Deny tiling made in a poor way (10)

I believe the answer is:

indigently

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

'in a poor way' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'deny tiling made' is the wordplay.
'made' is an anagram indicator.
'deny'+'tiling'='denytiling'
'denytiling' with letters rearranged gives 'INDIGENTLY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
