Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, followed by the grated fresh ginger, until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
Gently fold in the rolled oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
