From Java, satay spread through the [[List of islands of Indonesia|Indonesian Archipelago]] and, as a consequence, numerous variations of the dish have been developed. By the late-19th century, satay had crossed the [[Strait of Malacca]] into neighbouring [[Malaysia]], Singapore, and [[Thailand]].<ref name="Grill">{{cite book | title = Mastering the Grill: The Owner's Manual for Outdoor Cooking | author1 = David Joachim | author2 = Andrew Schloss | publisher = Chronicle Books | year = 2010 | isbn = 9780811878357 | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=hM3PEXmSqhIC&q=Indonesian+satay+sauce+Thai&pg=PA116 | page = 116 | access-date = 9 June 2020 | archive-date = 13 June 2020 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20200613145804/https://books.google.com/books?id=hM3PEXmSqhIC&pg=PA116&dq=Indonesian+satay+sauce+Thai | url-status = live }}</ref> In the 19th century, the term migrated, presumably with Malay immigrants from the Dutch East Indies, to South Africa, where it is known as {{lang|en-ZA|[[sosatie]]}}.<ref name="KraigPh.D.2013" /> The [[Indo people|Indo Dutch people]] took this dish, as well as many other Indonesian specialties, to the Netherlands, thereby influencing [[Dutch cuisine]].<ref>{{cite web | title = A Look at Culinary Influences on the Dutch Kitchen – How Other Cuisines Influenced the Dutch Kitchen Throughout History | first = Karin | last = Engelbrecht | work = About Food | url = http://dutchfood.about.com/od/aboutdutchcooking/a/FoodInfluences.htm | access-date = 20 April 2016 | archive-date = 5 October 2011 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20111005191741/http://dutchfood.about.com/od/aboutdutchcooking/a/FoodInfluences.htm | url-status = live }}</ref>
