I'd lead into it with an em-dash. It depends on where the correction is made in relation to when the 'error' was made "I think that the problems we face are two-fold — three-fold, I meant to say." If the error preceded the correction by ore than a few sentences, then I'd leave it to the reader to realise that the speaker has corrected himself/herself. Above all else a transcript must be an accurate portrayal of what was actually said. The only valid way to play with it is to use special punctuation to depict a pause, or you could use smething like "I think that the problem we face are two-fold (pause) three-fold, I meant to say."
