Could it have been All About Me
? It starred Jasper Carrott as the (step) father of an Asian family, and IIRC their neighbours were stereotypically clueless hippy types who would have probably liked sushi. The main character was the eldest son on the mother's side, who suffered from cerebral palsy and mostly "spoke" in voiceovers.
Does anybody know about a show that aired in the late 2000s to early 2010s about an Indian family with a male lead likely British, it aired in Australia as well and the only episode I remember was about the importance of healthy eating where the main character tries to get his family to eat healthy (and non-Indian) food in order to win a competition, his family react badly to the idea. His father eats food out of the bin and he introduces bland healthy food before appealing to his neighbours for help and they make sushi. The episode ends with the wrong tape being sent in and it showing all of his families failed attempts to eat healthy. It's not much to go on but it was an okay show and I would very much appreciate being pointed in the right direction. Thanks
