Below are various examples of procedural texts and their structures consisting of a) general objectives/statements, b) steps (stages), c) reaffirmations/closings in various types and themes.
Example of Complex Procedure Text
Complex procedure text is a procedure text that consists of more than five stages and requires special understanding from the author, for example, like the electrical procedure text below.
Utilizing Electrical Energy to Turn On Lights
Purpose (General Statement)
Electricity is energy that can be delivered to power a technological object. To know and understand how electricity is conducted, then we must conduct experiments or experiments. The experiment carried out was to turn on a lamp by utilizing electrical energy.
Tools and materials
Before this experiment is carried out, it is necessary to prepare the materials needed. These materials include: a) a battery, b) two strands of wire, c) a light bulb, d) Yarn, e) plastic string, f) masking tape. After the materials are collected, the steps that must be carried out are as follows.
Steps
First, connect the two wires to the bulb. The trick is to peel off part of the end of the cable until the metal part is exposed and then glue it to the bulb using masking tape. Using a lamp holder that already has a cable will make this process easier.
Next, connect the two remaining ends of the wires that have been connected to the lights on the battery. The trick can be done by peeling off some of the cables until the metal part is exposed as well. The cable can be attached to either side of the battery by hand, but make sure your hands are not wet or wear gloves.
At this point, the bulb should light up. If not, pay attention to the connection of the wires to the bulb and battery. Make sure that the battery also still has enough charge to turn on the light.
After that, repeat the steps that have been done above by replacing the cable using a plastic rope. The bulb will not turn on.
Observation
From these experiments, it can be seen that the bulb lights up when it is connected to the battery using a cable. However, the bulb does not light up when it is connected to the battery using a plastic strap.
Reaffirmation
Thus, it can be concluded that the cable can conduct electric current, while the plastic rope cannot conduct electric current.
Example of a Simple Procedure Text (Making a Cake)
On the other hand, simple procedure text is a procedure text that is not complicated and only involves five stages or steps to be followed. Here is an example.
Making Instant Steamed Brownies
Purpose
Who doesn't love brownies? This cake is one of the most popular snacks in the community. However, the difficulty of making this cake is also familiar among the people.
However, there is an easy way to make it, namely by using instant brownie dough that can be obtained at the nearest market or minimarket. Also, combine it by changing the cooking method, namely by steaming it, not baking it. Then these brownies will be fail-proof brownies.
Steps
How to make it? It's easy; just follow the steps below.
Mix instant brownie dough with water and eggs according to the dosage stated on the package.
Pour the brownie mixture into an aluminium bowl that is usually used to make cupcakes.
Steam brownies until cooked, don't worry about steaming them too long because brownies can't be scorched by steam.
Reaffirmation / Closing
It's not easy enough to serve it. Don't be confused if you don't have a special steamer, because we can use a rice cooker or rice cooker to steam it. We can also add chocolate chips or grated cheese to make the brownies taste more delicious.
Example of a Procedure Text for Making Fried Rice
Cooking Fried Rice
General Purpose/Statement
Nasi goreng is a simple but delicious Indonesian dish that can be cooked easily and quickly. How to make it? Before entering the manufacturing stage, first prepare the materials below.
Tools/Materials
The ingredients needed to cook fried rice are very easy to find. The ingredients include: a) rice, b) salt, c) red and white onions, d) soy sauce, e) eggs, f) green vegetables.
Steps
First, don't start cooking unless all the ingredients are on the table because fried rice should be cooked quickly and spontaneously.
Next, prepare the rice to be fried. Make sure the rice disperses by sifting through it with a spoon and refrigerating it briefly if the rice is still hot or warm.
Then, cut the green vegetables according to the desired size. Greens will wilt and shrivel as they cook, so feel free to chop them up a bit.
Next, break the eggs and put them in a bowl or other available container. This is done so that we can ensure that the eggs do not rot and that no eggshells are carried away because we cracked them directly on the pan. Eggs can be beaten or not, according to taste.
Finely chop the onion and garlic. Make sure the salt and soy sauce are easily accessible.
Next, heat the oil in a frying pan. Use low to medium heat. Once hot, pour in the eggs and stir until they become scrambled eggs. After the eggs are cooked enough, add a little more oil and then add the finely chopped onion and garlic. Saute briefly until fragrant.
In the next step, mix the rice into the pan. Fry the rice until completely mixed with the eggs and onions. Finally, add vegetables and sprinkle salt to taste. The vegetables are added last, so they don't become too wilted.
After some time cooking over low heat, pour soy sauce and turn up the heat. But increase the speed of the stir fry, so it doesn't burn. This is done so that the soy sauce is completely caramelized over high heat. The final step is to correct the taste. Add salt and soy sauce if it doesn't taste good. Fried rice is ready to be served.
Reaffirmation
This fried rice cooking procedure may seem a bit complicated when compared to conventional cooking methods. But the results will not disappoint. The fried rice will have a complex taste because it's completely caramelized, and the vegetables won't wilt too much. Good luck!
Sample Procedure Text for Making Drinks
Making Squeezed Lemonade
Purpose
Lemonade is a drink made from lemons and sugar as a sweetener. Although the ingredients are simple, if processed properly, it will produce a refreshing drink that is rich in taste.
Steps
First, peel the outer skin of the lemon without including the white inner skin. Set the fruit aside, then put the peeled skin of three large lemons in a bowl. Then, sprinkle 8-10 tablespoons of sugar, mix well and set aside. Cover the container with plastic or plastic and store it in the refrigerator for 6-12 hours.
After that, add the lemon zest that has been allowed to sit in the pan. Mix 2-3 cups of water and bring to a boil. Once it boils, turn off the heat, strain the lemon zest and leave only the water. Then, squeeze the lemon and mix it with the lemon zest.
In the last step, let stand the lemon boiled water that has been mixed with lemon juice and let stand until the steam is no longer steaming. Once it's not hot, put it in the refrigerator and wait for it to cool. Serve lemonade over ice cubes.
Closing
How to make it quite simple and easy, right? Lemon rind boiled water will add a distinctive taste that will not be obtained from lemon juice alone. Adjust the taste of the lemonade isn't sweet enough or too sour.
