It is easy to keep fresh ginger available at all times. Get some really nice looking fresh ginger, peel it, cut it in chunks, and put the chunks in a nice jar that can be closed tightly. Pour in some vodka to cover the ginger completely. This ginger will keep for a very long time and you can take it out of the vodka as needed, chop it up and use it in curries or stir-fries.
