Altered ingredient amounts.
I did not use the whole pods of cardamoms but removed the husks. Saves having to fish them out later.
I used less fish and potato (still served 4 easily).
Also substituted Spanish onion for spring onion and that was fine (but didn't have any green tops for the mash topping).

Moderately easy
This is a great-tasting recipe - but I would not classify it as 'easy' - it is quite fiddly, has a number of steps and requires quite a few cooking containers and utensils.
I certainly would make it again as it was a great hit with the family and has a lovely flavour. However I re-wrote the instructions for myself in a way which I find easier to follow (and also omitting the duplication of egg and milk ingredients).
