Heat the vegetable oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat.
Add the vegetarian bacon slices to the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy to your liking.
While the bacon is cooking, gently warm the white bread rolls in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for 2-3 minutes to make them soft and fresh.
Remove the rolls from the oven, slice them open and spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the inside of each roll.
Once the bacon is cooked, place 3 slices of vegetarian bacon into each buttered roll.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce over the bacon in each sandwich.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Close the rolls and serve the vegetarian bacon butty immediately.
