From cheeseboard pies to spiced-up veg and one last sweet flourish, this is how to eat, waste less and savour the lull between Christmas and New Year• Sign up here for our weekly food newsletter, FeastAt this time of year, I like to stay home, shut off from the world and do as little as possible for as long as possible.

If it’s cheese that you have in abundance, meanwhile, then Rosie Birkett’s decadent-sounding lazy cheeseboard...
