'paddy' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'turning red if celia throws a' is the wordplay.
'turning' is an anagram indicator.
'throws' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'red'+'if'+'celia'='redifcelia'
'redifcelia' with 'a' removed is 'redifceli'.
'redifceli' anagrammed gives 'RICEFIELD'.
