The origin of rendang could be traced back to the Indian merchants links to West Sumatra before the 15th century. ThereDue are Dutch archives about Minangkabau that stateto regular contacts between India and West Sumatra insince the early second millennium, thusthere suggestsare possibilities that north Indian curry was possibly the precursor of rendang. Indian curry was adopted by the Minangkabau people as [[gulai]], a local version of curry. Minangkabau people then cooked this [[gulai]] further in order to prepare [[kalio]] also known as wet rendang. This cooking process was then continued until it thickened and became rendang or also known as dry rendang.<ref>{{Cite journal|date=2017-12-01|title=Rendang: The treasure of Minangkabau |journal=Journal of Ethnic Foods|language=en|volume=4|issue=4|pages=232–235|doi=10.1016/j.jef.2017.10.005|issn=2352-6181|last1=Nurmufida |first1=Muthia |last2=Wangrimen |first2=Gervasius H. |last3=Reinalta |first3=Risty |last4=Leonardi |first4=Kevin |doi-access=free}}</ref>
 
[[Andalas University]] historian, Prof. Gusti Asnan suggests that rendang began to spread across the region when Minangkabau merchants began to trade and migrate to [[Malacca Sultanate|Malacca]] in the 16th century, "Because the journey through the river waterways in Sumatra took much time, a durable preserved dry rendang is suitable for a long journey."<ref name="urangminang.com"/> The dried Padang rendang is a durable food, good to consume for weeks, even when left at room temperature.<ref name="William Wongso"/> One of the earliest written records of rendang is from the Malaccan Malay manuscript of [[Hikayat Amir Hamzah]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=johkAAAAMAAJ&q=Sahut+perendang+daging+itu,+%22Hei+orang+muda,+apa+engkau+hendak|title=Hikayat Amir Hamzah|first=A.
