Hear, hear is correct. According to Wikipedia, short for "hear him, hear him".

Hear, hear. Hear, hear is an expression used as a short, repeated form of hear him. It represents a listener’s agreement with the point being made by a speaker. ... was used in Parliament from late in the 17th century, and was reduced to hear! or hear, hear! by the late 18th century.
