Cut the eggplant into medium-sized pieces. Place the pieces into the air fryer and cook them with some oil and salt for 10 minutes at 350°F. At about half-way through the time, move them a bit so that they cook on all sides. If you don't have an air fryer you can cook them in your oven at the same temperature for 20 minutes. You can also cook them on the stove with some oil.

Chop the onion and grate the garlic cloves and the ginger.

Add some olive oil to a large pan. Once the oil is hot you can cook the onion, garlic, and grated ginger until golden.
